    The national abortion industry funded by wealthy out-of-state special interests spent millions to pass this radical language that goes far past abortion on demand.

    I knew that politicians, especially those from the GOP, are delusional, but claiming that this was the reason for a 75% win of "Issue 1" is a pure and utter lie.

      Haha, that's so funny. 80% of funding on both sides of the fight came from out of state. I will say that the pro-choice camp also spent far less on their campaigns than the anti-women campaigns.

      And you're surprised? They'll do anything they think they can get away with, and they've figured out they can lie all the time about everything and get no pushback at all from the kind of people who vote Republican.

      national abortion industry

      What the fuck are they on? They act like there's a massively funded lobbying group like the oil industry or pharma has. This is a bunch of doctors doing $50 D&Cs and prescribing morning after pills at the free clinic.

      but claiming that this was the reason for a 75% win of "Issue 1" is a pure and utter lie.

      It wasn't a 75% win though, the election results are still "unofficial" but issue 1 only got 56.62% of the votes. It's a good thing the issue 1 in august failed to pass.
