WASHINGTON — Alabama’s vote to restrict abortion in almost all circumstances has moved one of the most polarizing issues in American politics to the centre of the 2020 presidential campaign. The furor over abortion quickly took over on the Democratic campaign trail. Rallying supporters in New Hampshire, Sen. Kamala Harris said she would back a legal challenge to the Alabama bill if Republican Gov. But supporters have openly predicted that the laws could spark court fights that will eventually lead the Supreme Court to revisit its Roe decision. Harris emailed her campaign supporters offering to “split a donation” to four advocacy groups working to defend abortion rights.
