Ballot measure that would have rolled back state’s six-week ban does not pass in devastating blow for advocates
Florida voters defeated a measure to enshrine abortion access into the state constitution, a devastating blow for advocates who had hoped to roll back the state’s six-week abortion ban and continue their now-broken streak of ballot-measure victories.
A total of 10 states voted on abortion-related ballot initiatives on Tuesday; results are forthcoming in the other nine. Four of those states could overturn post-Roe abortion bans and restore access.
