Probably option 3. But you realize this is not how referendums work, right? Almost always, I believe, the “No” option means the status quo, it means no changes to the current system. It’s very rare where a referendum makes a dramatic change no matter which way the vote goes. It would be one referendum on banning abortion (with a yes win banning abortion and a no win leaving the status quo intact) and a separate one to make it completely legal (where a yes vote would do so, and a no vote would leave things as they currently stand). If that’s the way this was presented, by the way, I would vote No on both and I believe a majority would vote the same way on both referendums (what would be highly interesting is if both referendums somehow passed - of course, it would be next to impossible that that actually happened, but if both referendums were voted on simultaneously, on the same ballot, and both were approved by the voters, what would happen? Would they simply “cancel each other out?”)
