Kansans voted by 59% to 41% to block the amendment, so that abortion will remain legal in the state up to the 22nd week of pregnancy. That compares with the 56% of the state’s electorate that voted for Donald Trump, the anti-abortion candidate, in the presidential election in 2020. Given that such a traditionally red state upheld abortion rights, it is likely that most others would, too. The Economist’s analysis of the results suggests similar referendums would probably succeed in 41 of the 50 states; the others either would be likely to end in losses for abortion-rights activists or appear too close to say either way.
