From these results, and Kansas a few months ago, perhaps the pro-lifers will learn their lesson: that abortion is too important to be left up to voters. They can outlaw it in legislatures, as long as the legislatures are sufficiently gerrymandered to be immune to voter backlash. Or they can decide (contrary to what they've been saying for fifty years) that abortion should NOT be left to the states, it should simply be outlawed nationwide, because both the disproportionate Senate and the gerrymandered House are largely immune to voter backlash.
