Everything you've said here is completely and absolutely delirious. This is the literal information of a low-information voter: someone who honestly believes that people are getting vasectomies at rallies or that a senile billionaire who says Haitians refugees are eating dogs as if it were reality is a better potential candidate.
I am a low information voter. I am far too busy working to support my family to spend my spare time doing psychedelics and reciting the names of my favorite politicians (and other high society pass-times) for fun. The fact that democrats can’t seem to include these low information voters in their narrative, especially since they’ve proven yet again that they are at least willing to show up and vote, is concerning. I hope the normal people can come to the table with a relevant agenda next time. Virtue signaling reproductive health doesn't put food on the table.
Surely insulting people by calling them "low information voters" (read as: stupid idiot) will win this time despite failing in 2016 and 2024. Also, people were at the very least offered vasectomies at the DNC rally[1], so maybe you should check your information levels, they seem to need a top-off.

You're picking one point in the headline that by itself sounds totally outrageous because in the mind of the low-information voter you read the headline and think to yourself a sketchy booth that says "free vasectomies!!!1" and somebody grabbing you in the middle of a convention saying "Kid, want a free vasectomy?".

In the context of a health check in reproductive health RV that offers a ton of things, _including_ vasectomies in the context of an informed discussion with a health expert, it is not only totally reasonable, but it should be extended to a host of other services that can provided in a mobile clinic the same that mobile vaccination sites were provided during COVID.
