California to vote on constitutional right to abortion
(Worthy News) – Californians are voting now through Election Day on whether to approve a state constitutional amendment that would guarantee the right to abortion and contraception, one of several measures on ballots nationwide this November to address reproductive health care following the U.S. Supreme Court’s overturning of Roe v. Wade.
Proposition 1 is expected to pass in the heavily Democratic state and was part of a robust legislative package backed by Gov. Gavin Newsom to ensure California remains a haven for people seeking abortion services. Legislators placed the measure to amend the constitution on the Nov. 8 ballot days just after the court ruled in June that states could decide whether to allow abortion.
Polling shows high support for the measure – at least two-thirds of likely voters said yes in two surveys – with minimal financial opposition from the California Republican Party and others who call the proposition expensive, extreme and unnecessary. [ Source: Fox News (Read More…) ]
