Strategically targeted election or is it the case that Kansas is a bellweather for this issue?
Anyone who thought that abortion alone wasn’t enough of an issue to get people out to vote just got a wake-up call.
States choosing to codify their own abortion laws without federal interference. In other words the way it should have been since a long time ago.
Lord, bless us with consequences so we may wake up and return to you.
After 170 years, the name, “Bleeding Kansas,” just doesn’t want to go away.
Disappointing, but whether the vote was Yea or Nay is still a victory for States Rights as the people of Kansas at least had, and will have again, the right to decide for themselves on this issue and not have it mandated from Washington.
“They chose death”
Don’t be silly. They chose sex.
They are getting death, yes. But the enormous electoral popularity of abortion, all over the world (cases in point: Quebec and Ireland) are not about ripping babies apart, they are about extramarital sex.
Watch for Democrats to rush abortion referendums onto the 2024 ballot the exact way they tied legalizing Marijuana onto the ballot to turn out all the stoners.
No one said it was going to be easy
We now live in a nation where millions of women have had abortions. Millions of people have supported them. Millions of men virtue signal to the girlfriends. So it’s not the same country it was 50 years ago. The fact that Roe existed changes the moral fabric of America.
Although I disagree with abortion, I believe it’s a state issue not federal so if that’s what the voters decide so be it.

Well, Kansas finally has something that will attract tourism. Abortion clinics will pop up everywhere.
Sounds like conservatives decided to stay home.
Even ruby-red states don't want to ban all abortion, nor do people in deep blue states want women aborting at eight months when there's no health reason needed for the mother to do so.
The people are pretty consistent on this, even if pandering politicians on both sides are not. At least it's rightfully a state issue and not a one-size-fits-all federal thing now.
Not a surprise. Kansas ain’t what it used to be
It’s a state issue and it always should have been a state issue. I don’t think a majority of states want politicians to decide for them and this vote demonstrated that people don’t trust politicians.
I will BET YOU, that the wording of that choice was deliberately designed to confuse the voter.
Perhaps they will have a great awakening.
That’s the problem with conservatives. They like to sit home on their asses on election day thinking that everyone else will be there to vote for a decent country. It’s not that way anymore. The RATS are destroying America. Abbott needs to start sending illegal invaders to Kansas too.
