Abortions Have Increased, Even for Women in States With Near-Total Bans | A new analysis shows how many women in states with bans are seeking procedures or pills from out-of-state providers.

Yikes. Not good for the abortion legislation carrot that dems have been dangling in front of voters.

This is really not a good look for you. I don't know if you intended it, but it reads like this:

"Yikes. Not a good look that women are exercising autonomy over their own bodies."

You seem to be under the misunderstanding that dems want to increase abortions. They want increased access to abortion, but that's not the same thing.

This really hurts Republicans more than Dems. Let's say you have a goal of reducing "x", so you pass a law banning it, but that causes a noticeable increase in the behavior. Your law made things objectively worse towards accomplishing your goal.

If you think the increased occurrence is justified as long as people are punished for it, then you don't actually care about reducing abortion, you just want to punish people for it.

To the contrary: people have shifted to having to travel long distances or get pills through the mail without local medical support.

In some states (eg: Idaho) these are substantially inaccessible.
