Abortion Rights Win in Majority of States, Face Setbacks in Florida and South Dakota

In recent state elections, measures to protect abortion rights were largely successful, with voters in seven out of ten states approving protections. However, Florida's Amendment 4, which sought to enshrine abortion rights, failed to meet the 60% threshold needed to pass, and South Dakota and Nebraska also rejected measures to expand abortion access. Meanwhile, states like Missouri and Colorado voted to enhance abortion protections, reflecting a mixed but predominantly pro-abortion rights trend across the country.
