Akkula Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 Voting no on allowing legislature to ban abortions. Turnout is high and no votes are far outstripping how Biden did. Lots of Republicans are voting against and lots of Democrats turning out. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smltwnrckr Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 Still early. But crossing fingers. Kansas is historically a pro-bodily-autonomy state, from its Jayhawker days to its being a huge pro choice enclave pre-roe. My grandma was a nurse who got her degree at Kansas. Rock chalk.

smltwnrckr Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 Also, if it's even close its a win for women's right maintaining political relavence despite the anti-women political inertia. The anti abortion activists and state GOP put it on a closed primary to suppress Democrat vote. And they've been basically running a dishonest campaign to try and confuse voters. Weird... a movement that claims to be based on a moral truth having to use dishonesty and underhanded approaches to gain power. Maybe God isn't on your side? 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smltwnrckr Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 Rock Chalk!!!!! Wow. I'm shocked it wasn't even close. Women must be pissed about being told they're not people. Key point here... this vote was to keep a right to choice a CONSTITUTIONAL right. People don't want legislatures deciding what happens in their bodies. Today is a good day for America. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pro-women advocates basically were saying "we're optimistic. We think it could be close." The fact that it wasn't even close is striking. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remains to be seen but the SCOTUS move could come into play on a lot of states in November .........and it could become even more to the forefront if gas prices, housing & other economic indicators settle down over the next 90 days. This being GOP dominated Kansas is rather stunning 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Bob, not robe, was the kansas guy. Aw, poor robe. All the women around him get to make decisions about what happens in their bodies. And he has no say in it. Poor robe.

They know deep down people don't want their dystopian bullshit. That's why they put it on the primary ballot. It's why they worded it in a confusing way, and why they refused to state their intentions to ban abortion until after they lost, and why they lied to voters in the final days. In Kansas. +++++ing Kansas. Anti abortion activists know that people don't want their rules. Which is why they always... ALWAYS ... use underhanded tactics, lies and undemocratic, strong arm tactics to get the monstrous outcomes that they want. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
