In case you're curious. In the past, Mullally has supported - LGBTQ+ rights - Abortion rights - The ordination of women (duh) - Described herself as a feminist. I'll say a big prayer for her future leadership and against her haters.

For years, conservatives have warned that if you vote for the most boring Democrat you've ever heard of you'll be prevented from practicing Christianity in public. Under Trump, Catholics are being given permission to skip Mass, where you eat Christ, due to fear of being kidnapped by the government.
