It's a sick and sad day. Great to see that a large majority of Kansas people support a sacrifice to their God Satan. You all are sick. Then we have the morons reporting this. You do understand there is NO constitutional rights to abortion right? What there is is a right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. LIFE being the first one and by that alone an abortion violates a constitutional right.
Abortions with non stop nuking can really fix it.
Kansas, I’ve a feeling you’re not in the Republican Party anymore. 😂
This just proves that the majority of Americans men and women don't want the government to regulate their privacy rights. This was never about challenging the right to life, it was about telling people and the government to mind their own business!😀
Republicans really screwed up when they struck down Roe
After 2020 youd be a sucker to buy any election
I don’t buy this at all! Kansas is the most anti-abortion state I’ve ever seen! And the total number of votes on the abortion issue was a whopping 908,745!
The total votes for the Kansas governor’s race was 727, 360, and the number for Kansas US Senator was 718, 545, similar to the total votes for governor.
So we are supposed to believe that somehow almost 200,000 voters only showed up to vote on abortion ONLY and didn’t even vote for governor, or their US Senator? And especially when you consider that the abortion measure failed by only 159,523 votes and somehow there were 180,000 to 190,000 EXTRA VOTES ON THAT ISSUE ALONE, again, swelling its total vote numbers, by almost 200,000, the numbers appear even fishier. It seems the ballot boxes were stuffed, on this one issue.

Abortion is murder!!
Kansas, we are proud of you. Regards from Sydney Australia.
I think it's important to acknowledge all the people in the rural western deep red 'Bob Dole' country counties who voted No. They didn't need to win their counties but they turned out to keep things close enough there and tip the scales a little. It kept the door open for the voters in the cities to do their thing and they delivered! Way to go Kansas.
I hope other states would follow Kansas and put the abortion right issue on the state ballot. That will scare the bejesus out of the pro-choice party.
The USA billionaires Tax club will not like this outcome.
The question is whether or not they will return in November.
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Anti abortionists didn't lose in that election. The most vulnerable amongst Kansas did. The unborn. I'm not talking about failed pregnancies that puts mom in danger. But abortion should never be a form of birth control. There are too many forms of birth control out there so unwanted pregnancies shouldn't be happening. Btw if you're reading this…your mom chose life. Class dismissed.
Need to ask – was this vote rigged and were the machines rigged to NO by some Italian satellite?
Mid terms folks ,gotta destroy Republican nutters. Vote , vote ……
No virginia they dont want Sharia Law in Kansas
Kansas voters are showing that America is not a dictatorship but a democracy. Let's vote for democracy at all elections.
why are they shouting back and forth, the echo sounds as though they're all in the same bathroom
Fake news. It was rigged. Seize the voting machines. Get the Ninjas on the job.
Kidding. Strong work Kansas
Reigns of hope in the grim dark US
Wooohoooo the Jesus party loses again WOOOOHOOOO 😇
Wow, this is a pure shot of hope-adrenaline to the dying corpse of my hope for humanity!!! THANK YOU to the PEOPLE OF KANSAS!!!!
WE THE PEOPLE ARE STANDING UP!
Thank you Covid for culling the conservative herd (mind).
Legalized infanticide is not a constitutional right nor has it ever been. Last I checked, if an individual kills an expecting mother, her unborn child is legally recognized as its own separate person (as they should) thus the culprit is charged with double homicide for the taking of both lives. So if this is the route they're going to take then I guess they'll have to do away with that precedent as well because you can't identify an unborn child as a life in one instance and then completely disregard its humanity when it's purposefully ended by their mother and a doctor in an abortion clinic. You either recognize them as their own separate life form or you don't. Can't have it both ways
Great Job Kansas set the pace for the country
I’m so proud to be part of this historic vote today, so proud of KANSAS- forever the FREE STATE!
Abortionist and pedophiles use the same criminal thinking process to convince themselves they aren't hurting anyone.
And the Unborn have lost. How callous are the people of Kansas.
"Kansas is an example of what happens when one party overreaches, and is now bordering on swing state territory".
Lol. Now talk about Florida
We're back in Kansas Toto and the wicked witch is dead.
Johnson County no joke
Kansas is the Free State. Jayhawks stand up.
Toto, we ARE IN KANSAS!
Yes Kansas! 👏👏👏
KKK = Kansas Kills Kids
Please vote these Anti-Choice REPUBLICANS out of office.
Kansas used to be famous for the 'Kansas Experiment' which showed the fallacy of 'supply-side' economics
( cutting taxes did not spur the economy, quite the opposite!) Now Kansas has one more thing to be proud of!
I guess we weren’t satisfied with repeating early 1900s history… KS, MO, and IL are using abortion to repeat mid 1800s history on slav3ry and how that impacted their relationships with each other
This is just the beginning, wait till the midterms
