, where Democratic Lt. Gov. John Fetterman defeated Republican Dr. Mehmet Oz, 36% of voters cited abortion as their top issue, compared with 29% who cited inflation.

The California and Vermont measures served mostly to secure an already strong abortion-rights policy in those solidly blue states. Kentucky’s amendment, meanwhile, was designed to keep state courts from creating Roe v. Wade-style legal protections. With the measure’s failure, anti-abortion advocates will have one less argument available in court,

Abortion-rights advocates also won key contests beyond Michigan. In Wisconsin, voters re-elected Gov. Tony Evers and fellow Democrat Josh Kaul, the attorney general. Like Michigan, Wisconsin is a purple state that faced reimposition of a pre-Roe abortion ban that has no exceptions for rape and incest.

What happens in Arizona, another purple state with a pre-Roe abortion ban on the books, remains to be seen. Races for governor and attorney general are among those that are too close to call.

That’s false. It’s a theater in Italy that’s open to the public, hosting plays, music and even children’s theater. Kind of sad you have to cover that stuff now. Too many people are crazy. Why is it that a handful of people don’t seem capable of living without trying to instill fear in others? QANON?
