Yes, but. When NY adopted abortion, its Governor was Nelson Aldrich Rockefeller, its senators were Jacob Koppel Javits and Robert Francis Kennedy, and the city mayor was still John Vliet Lindsay. That was 3-1 "Republican" though Lindsay later switched. And Kennedy was succeeded for two years by an ultraliberal Republican as well. So NY was a liberal Republican state at the time of abortion adoption.
Rinos and all Republicans take the heat.
