There is a vote right now in Albuquerque trying to restrict women's access to abortions.
No election day votes have been counted yet, but so far:
Absentee Voting:
For: 4,046
Against: 2,273
Total: 6,319
For: 69.73%
Against: 30.27%
Early Voting:
For: 18,078
Against: 25,719
Total: 43,797
For: 41.28%
Against: 58.72%
Total vote:
For: 44.15%
Against: 55.85%
Note: The election day vote is still not available.
This will probably go down in flames.
I hope so.
Is this a local ballot initiative? If so, the republicans must control the municipality (which seems highly unlikely), otherwise, why would democrats put up a vote like this?
It's a citizen's referendum
