Wait. If he has voted to overturn a law, would you say he is a strict constructionist?

If the law is unconstitutional, then yes. If he overturned to because the law is "unfair", then no.

So if it was HIS interpretation that a law was unConstitutional, his vote would be OK as a constructionist. So he viewed a minor getting an abortion without parental consent as Constitutional in your view. Otherwise, he would have thrown it out.
