Kentucky voters reject constitutional amendment declaring no right to abortion
Fox News
In the midterm elections on Tuesday, Kentuckians voted against a measure that would have amended the state constitution and removed any protection for abortion rights.
The ballot question had asked Kentuckians if they wanted to amend the constitution to say: "To protect human life, nothing in this Constitution shall be construed to secure or protect a right to abortion or require the funding of abortion."
The outcome highlights a gap between voters and the state’s Republican-controlled Legislature, which added the proposed amendment to the 2022 general election slate a year ago in a move some thought would drive more conservative voters to the polls.
