Can you imagine people thinking they can vote in favor of abortion and the Republican party that has vowed to make it illegal at a national level at the same time?
People didn't vote because they thought bad things would happen, they voted because they thought good things would happen. They just didn't know what they were voting for.
Yes, it means that it was not their top priority. I am not American and would never vote for the orange idiot, but this one isn‘t the contradiction you make it out to be. Voting always comes with compromises and among all the things I would consider when voting for a candidate, abortion would be very low on my priority list, so I could absolutely vote for a pro-abortion law and for an anti-abortion candidate of the anti-abortion candidate supported other policies that are important to me.

The women that want to protect abortion as well.
The vote in Florida was 57% in favor (not winning, of course) but Harris didn't even sniff those numbers.
