Atlas-style map of the Kansas abortion vote:

Is that the result map of the "Value Them Both" Amendment?

I think that's what it's called, yeah. The one of whether the Kansas Constitution should be re-interpreted to preclude the right to an abortion, or whatever roundabout wording they used.

[NOVA Green]

Really suspecting that JHB might have held onto her position in WA-03, despite her vote to impeach Trump.

Will take weeks to count all of the ballots in Washington State, but she still has a pretty solid lead over her other two Republican opponents in an AVR and VBM State.

Plus Indies can vote in the PRIMs as well...

Difference between EV and ED votes are much less extreme in VBM States, and strongly thinking that she will likely be able to survive vs the two other PUB front-runners in a "Ranked Primary System", which combined thus far have something like 35% of the total electorate.

Quite likely another Trump fail to take out a "Pro-Impeachment PUB", regardless of the fact that apparently voters within the district are souring against the DEMs on economic concern issues, in what traditionally has been one of the most competitive CD's for a long time in the PAC-NW.

Ah, okay. I was a bit confused since the Wikipedia result map looks entirely different.
But I think that map hasn't been updated over the last hours, whereas yours includes the most recent updates.
Are the results - No: 61.09% | Yes: 38.91% - still current?



Update: The Wikipedia map has been updated in the meantime, without a change of the map URL.

This is where I'm getting my numbers:

https://www.washingtonpost.com/elections/election-results/kansas/2022-primaries/

It has the totals at 58.8% No to 41.2% Yes.

Maybe the Wikipedia map only shows county results from counties that are 100% reporting? I'm not sure.

That's funny ... The moment you posted your comment, the Wikipedia map has been updated. Interesting that the map URL didn't change.
The results haven't been changed yet, though. I hope that the Wikipedia figures will remain the correct ones, cause should the WP numbers prove themselves true, it would cast a very poor light on the Kansans.

Via Kansas SOS:

3993/3994 Precincts Reporting
NO: 534075 (58.78%)
YES: 374521 (41.22%)

[ProgressiveModerate]

Gotta say kudos to KS for counting fast

Screw AZ as usual

[Adam Griffin]

Worth noting that turnout in the KS primary exceeded both 2010 and 2014 general election turnout, and will wrap up right at 90% of 2018's GE turnout.

I observed it already some years ago, we Europeans only have access to very few American state SOS websites. So, thanks for providing me/us with that information!

PS: Not only the map, but also the results have been updated on the Wikipedia page in the meantime.

[Adam Griffin]

A rather unscientific way to look at things of course, but based on the final margin, the "no" vote outperformed Trump in Kansas by 32.2 points (margin): if every state had the same swing on such a vote compared to the 2020 presidential, this is what it'd look like:

OK & ND only barely fall into the red here.

[OSR stands with Israel]

We can argue whether it was the right thing to do but the DCCC spending for Gibbs just may flip this race.

I hope Gibbs wins big in November then

Press X to doubt

I know he will probably lose

[smoltchanov]

Well, it seems that Arizona's and Michigan's GOP officially went mad and fascist with their candidates for GE. Kansas, Missouri and Washington's still retain a little bit of sanity...

[No War, but the War on Christmas]

Lake looks like she's pulling ahead in Arizona, so looks like I'm donating another few bucks to Hobbs in addition to the small donation I made to Scholten earlier. Make sure to put your money where your mouth is progressives, this election is life and death.

That's insane for a primary.

Republicans may inadvertently opened a hornet's nest with their anti-Roe decision. At least - i hope for that. Such things must be "punished"....

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

Well, Lake won, she obviously is the weaker candidate, if Robson won she would of perhaps won the Gov

But, polling was still off they had Lake winning by 10, let's see next WK whom wins in WI Kleefisch or Michaels, Michael's flubbed the debate

Pence lost big on Robson in AZ because Robson could of been Gov now Hobbs will beat Lake

[Ab1234mdusr]

Looks like Meijer has to work at the grocery store next year.

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

No she didn't get declared the winner Lake it says 80 percent not 99 percent reporting MSNBC puts up 99 and then 80


There are other jobs out there outside of retail if you are already armed you can go into armed security, Campus patrol is a well paying job if you are too old to be a cop or military

And where will Gibbs work? Only - don't tell me, that in US House of Representatives...

[Senator Incitatus]

Shame about Joe Kent if this result holds; done in entirely by the spoiler effect. Even putting impeachment aside, he was a far better candidate than JHB. He'll land on his feet.

[President Punxsutawney Phil]

What was Gibbs doing before this?

He worked in the Trump administration and he was a software engineer at some point.

Though I doubt he'll be a congressman.

He's kind of a goofy nerd but it's not like this is Valadao losing. He still has a very good shot.

[Senator Incitatus]

FWIW, a lot of Washington's R votes haven't been counted yet. There was a big movement to have WA R's vote on ED this year. Not saying it will make a difference in winners, but the story may look a bit different at the end of the week.

Any idea whether this is still the case?
