Quick Glance: Arizona Republicans foil another effort to repeal 1864 abortion ban
  • Arizona House Republicans once again thwarted an attempt on Wednesday to repeal the state's nearly complete abortion ban from 1864, leaving Democrats without a vote on their repeal bill for the second consecutive week.

  • Despite facing pressure from influential conservatives, such as former President Trump and Senate hopeful Kari Lake, urging GOP leaders to lift the ban, the Republicans blocked the repeal.

  • State House Democrats made a procedural maneuver to attempt to suspend House rules and bring the repeal bill to the floor for discussion. However, this action was rejected by the GOP majority, with only one Republican, Representative Matt Gress, crossing party lines to support bringing up the repeal bill.

  • A similar endeavor to repeal the ban was obstructed by Republicans last week. Following persistent criticism of the law by Democrats both within and outside the state throughout the week, prominent figures like Trump and Lake recognized the political risks and advocated for a change in direction within the Legislature.

Poll: Election interest hits new low in tight Biden-Trump race
Quick Glance: Poll: Election Interest Declines in Tight Biden-Trump Race
  • The interest of voters in the election has reached the lowest point in two decades at this stage in a presidential race.

  • The latest national NBC News poll reveals that the number of voters with high interest in the 2024 presidential election has nearly hit the lowest point in almost 20 years, with a majority holding negative views of President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump.

  • Inflation and immigration top the list of the country's most pressing issues, with only one-third of voters giving Biden credit for improving economic performance.

  • The survey also highlights how the low voter interest and the independent candidacy of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. could potentially disrupt what has been a stable presidential contest with over six months until Election Day.
