Voters in Kansas voted 59 to 41 to preserve their abortion rights in their state constitution – a much bigger margin than anyone expected. Now, NC Democrats are hoping the issue will motivate their voters this fall, too.
Raleigh, N.C. — On Tuesday night, voters in Kansas voted 59 to 41 to preserve their abortion rights in their state constitution – a much bigger margin than anyone expected.
Now, NC Democrats are hoping the issue will motivate their voters this fall, too.
When the Supreme Court’s decision in the Dobbs case was first leaked to the public, there were protests in the streets in cities across the country. However, a lot of political pundits predicted it wouldn’t be a big factor this November.
The overwhelming vote in Kansas, though, is causing some to reconsider.
The strong bipartisan vote to keep abortion legal in Kansas stunned a lot of political observers who expected the deeply conservative state to vote the other way.
