"The issue of abortion has bedeviled Republicans since the U.S. Supreme Court's 2022 decision to eliminate a nationwide right. Anger over the ruling was widely credited with limiting Republican gains in the 2022 midterm elections, as well as boosting Democrats' performance in state races in Kentucky and Virginia last year."
"Voters have chosen to protect or expand abortion access in all seven statewide ballot measures put to a vote since the court's decision, including in conservative strongholds such as Ohio, Kentucky and Kansas."
"Democrats, led by Vice President Kamala Harris, have sought to build support for the measures, which they hope will galvanize left-leaning and independent voters."
"Arizona election officials approved a ballot measure that would amend the state constitution to guarantee abortion rights up to fetal viability, generally considered to be around 23 or 24 weeks."
