America's chaotic new reality over abortion takes shape
CNN
After the celebration and grief comes the chaos of a nation split by bitter political divides that now determine where women can access abortion.
The Supreme Court's landmark decision on Friday to overturn the near 50-year constitutional right for a woman to end a pregnancy is triggering after-shocks that have already begun to change the character of American life.
The realization is dawning that a daring conservative Supreme Court majority has, with its willingness to trample long-held precedent, introduced a destabilizing dynamic that may go far beyond abortion in a nation already internally estranged by ideology.

Janet Mills and her allies are counting on a gender gap to narrow Platner’s wide lead ahead of the June 9 primary to decide who will face incumbent Republican Sen. Susan Collins. They are betting that the unfiltered style that has brought Platner widespread attention as someone who could help Democrats reach young men will backfire with women.
