TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) An increase in turnout among Democrats and independents and a notable shift in Republican-leaning counties contributed to the overwhelming support of abortion rights last week in traditionally conservative Kansas, according to a detailed Associated Press analysis of the voting results.
Even in traditionally conservative Kansas a state Donald Trump carried by double digits in 2020's presidential election support for the proposed abortion amendment was lower in every single county than support for the former president had been two years ago.
