Abortion-rights advocates win in 4 states, clear way to overturn Missouri ban but lose in Florida

[M14 Shooter]

WASHINGTON — Voters in Missouri cleared the way to undo one of the nation’s most restrictive abortion bans in one of four victories Tuesday for abortion rights advocates, while Florida defeated a similar constitutional amendment, leaving in place a law barring most abortions after the first six weeks of pregnancy.

Abortion rights amendments also passed in Colorado and Maryland. Another that bans discrimination on the basis of “pregnancy outcomes” prevailed in New York.

Not sure how that can be if 57% vote against a draconian law in Florida, the Nazi Governor threatens TV stations who play commercials against it, and we still end up with the draconian law.

Seems like the opposite of Democracy to me.

That's the way it's supposed to be. Instead of a dictatorship that decrees that all abortion is legal we have the voters dealing with the issue by state.

Democrats are smart enough to use birth control.

It's the dumb conservatives who end up going to abortion clinics.

The fact that TV stations play paid ads stating the opinion of one group of people is actually a benefit of democracy, not the downfall of it. By your logic, any differing opinion would be the opposite of democracy. Sounds more like North Korea to me.

Again, we aren't Democracies, at the State or Federal level. We are Constitutional Republics, and part of that is making changing Constitutions not subject to the tyranny of the majority.

Yep. Encourage the trend of childless married folk. Then abortion goes away.
