‘Women are fed up’: Michael Moore predicts that pro-choice voters will ‘show up in masse’ on Election Day
.
Countless pundits and pollsters have been predicting that Republicans will enjoy a major red wave on Tuesday, November 8, regaining control of the U.S. House of Representatives and winning their share of key gubernatorial races as well. The Senate is widely regarded as a toss-up; Senate races in Pennsylvania, Nevada, Arizona, Georgia and other swing states are close. And Democratic strategists and organizers who, behind closed doors, are pessimistic about their chances of keeping the House are at least hoping that they will be able to keep the Senate.
But one liberal/progressive activist who is feeling very bullish about Democratic prospects in the 2022 midterms is Michael Moore. The filmmaker has been predicting that Democrats will enjoy a “blue tsunami” on November 8, and he stuck by that prediction during a Thursday, November 3 appearance on MSNBC’s weekday show “The Beat.”
Interviewed by host Ari Melber, Moore said of Republicans, “They’re not going to be in charge. They’re not going to win next Tuesday. And it seems like I take a minority position on this because the media is full of a lot of how the Republicans are surging and the Republicans are doing so well…. And you know how liberals are; we get all verklempt. Oh no, oh no, we’re gonna lose! And it’s like, no, actually, we’re not going to lose. There’s more of us than there are of them.”

Moore, known for documentaries that include 1989’s “Roger & Me,” 2007’s “Sicko” and 2002’s “Bowling for Columbine,” argued that millions of American women are still furious about the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization — which overturned Roe v. Wade after 49 years.
