I think it would be difficult to be with a spouse that’s not on the same page with you regarding political issues, however I don’t think it’s grounds for divorce. However infidelity is, but since it was such a long time ago, have you forgive her? Maybe you haven’t ‘cause you brought it up again. That’s something you need to deal with.
I wouldn’t be so concerned about her political views, rather finding a Bible believing church, and attending it weekly. Also each of you should go to a women’s and men’s Bible study weekly. This is where you will find other believers, and grow strong friendships. It’s in this type of environment, that she will actually learn that abortion is wrong. Start reading the Bible together every day. One Proverbs, and one psalms. It’s not a lot of time, and it can make a huge difference on your day. If she won’t do it with you, start doing it yourself, and be an example to her. Be an example of a godly husband.
Jesus Christ says we’re supposed to forgive one another as he has forgiven us. Holding unforgiveness in your heart, is the sin against the Lord, and it doesn’t help you at all. After I finally for gave to people in particular over a ten-year period of being angry at them, I feel free again.
I think you should focus on your relationship with Christ, and build your relationship with your wife from there. I think you will find that in doing so, you can have a long lasting marriage. Forgiveness is key! And being a godly husband is the best gift you could ever give your wife.

Everything after that will follow.
