Is there any real possibility of this passing? Colorado seems a very unlikely venue.

It doesn't propose an outright abortion ban. But it does affirm the personhood of the unborn. That's a debate the Left wants to avoid. It would rather frame it as "choice.

Colorado seems a very unlikely venue.

There are lots of lefty resort towns in Colorado, but the state is also the home of the Air Force Academy and the Focus on the Family headquarters. So it's a toss-up as to whether it could pass a referendum.

CO - lots of Evangelicals, lots of Mormons, several large Catholic communities. It has a chance. I would love to see the abortion debate shifted to the 14th Amendment - “nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law”
