Abortion Rights Victory in Kansas
Summary by NewsWall Apr 26 23
- Peter Slevin writes about a Kansas ballot initiative that, if enacted, would have removed abortion rights from the state constitution.
- They purposefully placed an incomprehensible ballot question on a midterm primary ballot that has historically drawn considerably more Republican voters than Democrats or independents.
- Voters temporarily halted a push for stricter abortion restrictions in the state, boosting the spirits of battered Democrats around the country.
- "I have four daughters," Ashley All, the Kansans for Constitutional Freedom spokesperson, told reporters on Wednesday morning.
