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.

Yes, the red wave is starting to look like it could be a blue wave.

Thanks to SCOTUS, dems will almost certainly now keep the senate and probably extend their house lead.

Yep, there will be no red wave. Our side is not only out manned, has way less money, but lots of conservatives were also very overconfident that inflation was going to carry us over! We’re going to have to work for this one.

Here's what Kansas voters had to read and decipher before voting:

Explanatory statement.

The Value Them Both Amendment would affirm there is no Kansas constitutional right to abortion or to require the government funding of abortion, and would reserve to the people of Kansas, through their elected state legislators, the right to pass laws to regulate abortion, including, but not limited to, in circumstances of pregnancy resulting from rape or incest, or when necessary to save the life of the mother.

A vote for the Value Them Both Amendment would affirm there is no Kansas constitutional right to abortion or to require the government funding of abortion, and would reserve to the people of Kansas, through their elected state legislators, the right to pass laws to regulate abortion.

A vote against the Value Them Both Amendment would make no changes to the constitution of the state of Kansas, and could restrict the people, through their elected state legislators, from regulating abortion by leaving in place the recently recognized right to abortion.”

Shall the following be adopted?

§ 22. Regulation of abortion.

Because Kansans value both women and children, the constitution of the state of Kansas does not require government funding of abortion and does not create or secure a right to abortion. To the extent permitted by the constitution of the United States, the people, through their elected state representatives and state senators, may pass laws regarding abortion, including, but not limited to, laws that account for circumstances of pregnancy resulting from rape or incest, or circumstances of necessity to save the life of the mother.

Yes / No

Yes, the red wave is starting to look like it could be a blue wave.

The language of this referendum was intentionally misleading. Many pro-life voters likely thought they were voting against abortion "rights", not for them. The Rats overestimate the number of Americans who are pro-baby murder.
