Oh, HELL!

The anti-abortion ballot initiative is leading by a wide margin in South Dakota. DAMN DAMN DAMN.

UPDATE:

Both the South Dakota AND Colorado anti-abortion votes are now expected to lose.

No word yet on Proposition 8 in California.

I wouldn't worry about it.
The Supreme Court will just strike it down again.

Crap. That will definitely take some of the shine out of tonight. :/

No, no...it's losing with 44% of precincts reporting: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/25381269

CNN and MSNBC are both showing it as going down...

I thought Maddow said it was losing... ditto the *personhood* one in Colorado? Crap!

[ellid.livejournal.com]

Oh, thank GOD. I was really worried.

[femmequixotic]

She did. :) It's losing, as is the Colorado one (that one 75% to 25%).

[ellid.livejournal.com]

Oh, thank you Jesus! That personhood one was TERRIFYING.

[femmequixotic]

Yeah, that was a seriously batshit proposition. *shakes head*

Quadruple damn.
But it will be struck down by the Supreme Court sometime next year. Too late for some women, but it won't last long.

Continue to worry. It's currently reported as succeeding with 70% of precincts reporting.

[fitzw.livejournal.com]

Wait a second... In one place on the same page, it's reported as succeeding and failing.

Excellent.

Thanks for letting me know my google was failing me.
