Trump was right, voters want decisions about abortion to be made locally

“Ten states had abortion issues on the ballot on Election Day. Several of them voted on the issue — and on the top of the ticket — precisely as you would expect. Deep blue Maryland and Colorado, for example, voted to protect pro-choice initiatives, and voted heavily for Kamala Harris. Reliably red states did the exact opposite, defeating abortion initiatives, and voting heavily for Trump: Florida and South Dakota, for example. But it is the smattering of other states that shows just how right Trump was politically on returning the issue of abortion to the states. Voters approved abortion rights protections in initiatives in Montana, Nevada and Arizona, and the exact same electorates in those states also gave the White House to Trump.” (11/13/24)
