These are the states that will put the question to their voters in November.
They all better vote out Republicans because if they win all of this will not matter. They will be implementing a nationwide ban.
That’s unlikely in South Dakota and Montana.
Montana could vote for John tester though
They collected almost twice the necessary signatures needed for the bill in Montana. And abortion is already protected via the right to privacy in the state constitution. The R governor and state legislators keep trying to fight it though. Let’s hope the “stay out of other people’s business” people vote yes.
It’s kind of a scary map to look at if you think about it. On the one hand it’s amazing that democracy has a chance to rule and that people might be able to preserve their rights this way. On the other hand though to have such a fundamental right decided by one all or nothing throw of the die. Whew boy. Makes you super nervous.
Then there are states like Arkansas that waited until after the deadline and threw out 30k votes.
It’s not like it can’t be voted on again if needed.
Sorry, I meant signatures. But yeah, I guess we’ll try again in two years against this corrupt government.
And the State Supreme Court just confirmed the ballot rejection entirely today.
Meanwhile, here in Indiana: “Fuck you. We don’t care about democracy.”
I’m just glad I’m on the Illinois border in case the worst happens.
Arkansas used a bit of ratfuckery to keep it off the ballot here, too.
They’re probably gonna get away with it, too. And to think, we could’ve had a bona fide scientist as our governor instead of Donald Trump’s personal liar.
Indiana doesn’t have to. We don’t get ballot measures here except in very special circumstances.
Is that bullshit that the Arkansas AG is pulling going to be allowed to go through? For anyone who is not aware, Arkansas got enough signatures to have an abortion initiative on the ballot. The AG threw out the petition because some of the signature gatherers were paid. He allowed two other initiatives (one for weed and one for casinos) to be on the ballot that had the same issue.
Hey I’ve been living in JD France’s hometown for years now, rather conservative county, and it often seems hopeless. But Ohio voted overwhelmingly to keep abortion legal.
*edit what’s his name? JO Dance?
Anita Cushion?
JD Ottoman
Vladimir Futon?

This is going to be a Mondale level landslide
