Kansas maintains abortion right: Voters yesterday rejected a proposal that would remove the rights of access to abortion from the state constitution.
The US media reported it.
With 96.7% of the votes counted, the 'no' - that is, those who support the right to abortion - reached 58.8% against 41.2% of the 'yes' in the referendum held yesterday.
"This vote makes it clear what we know: the majority of Americans agree that women should have access to abortion and should have the right to make their own health decisions," said US President Joe Biden in a press release.
