Utah keeps more descriptive and detailed statistics on abortions than you might have realized. Who is getting abortions? When and where are they most common? Andy Larsen breaks down the data.

. What I found there surprised me somewhat: deep, detailed tables on abortions in Utah.

Becky’s reporting has included most of these statistics, to be sure, but I thought it might be helpful to include them all in one place. So let’s take a look at the data, and use it to answer 10 questions about the reality of abortion in Utah.Abortion rates, frankly, have plummeted over the past 30 years.

However, that trend reversed itself during the pandemic. While we don’t have data from the Department of Health for the past two years,Planned Parenthood and Wasatch Women’s Center, the two main abortion providers in Utah, to find out how the number of abortions had changed. In total, they reported 3,037 abortions in 2020, and 3,388 in 2021. From those two providers alone, we can conclude there’s been a significant increase in abortions in the past two years.

Jen Plumb overtakes Derek Kitchen in nail-biter Utah Senate raceThe razor-thin race in the Democratic primary for Utah’s most liberal state Senate seat flipped Thursday after Salt Lake County dropped in another batch of unofficial ballot returns. Congratulations Jen. I voted for Kitchen. But both are excellent. With all of the GOP clowns in the legislature, truly sad one of these two must lose.
