It takes money, leadership, clarity and flexibility for pro-lifers to win a state abortion referendum, pro-life advocates told the Register in the wake of victories in three states on Election Day.

It takes money, leadership, clarity and flexibility for pro-lifers to win a state abortion referendum, pro-life advocates told the Register in the wake of victories in three states on Election Day.

The pro-life side won in statewide referendums Nov. 5 in Florida, Nebraska and South Dakota. The pro-abortion side won in seven other states: Colorado, Arizona, Maryland, Missouri, Montana, Nevada and New York.

Coming into the November 2024 election, the pro-life side had lost all seven previous statewide referendums since the U.S. Supreme Court returned abortion law to the states: in Kansas (August 2022), Kentucky (November 2022), California (November 2022), Vermont (November 2022), Montana (November 2022), Michigan (November 2022) and Ohio (November 2023).

In baseball terms, that makes pro-lifers three for 17 since June 2022, a batting average of .176.

But that’s infinitely higher than zero.

At least under a Trump administration, pro-lifers will be allowed to continue the fight for life.
That cannot be said about what would have happened to them, under a Harris administration.

Trump's pro-life policies are not all that pro-lifers want or had hoped for. But they are way better than no permissions, perhaps even imprisonment, which would have been the inevitable consequences of a Harris adminstration.

The pro-life movement marches on ...
