The Guardian reports that voters in several states protected reproductive rights in the 2026 midterms: Nevada approved Question 6 enshrining abortion rights through the second trimester, Virginia passed an amendment establishing a fundamental right to reproductive freedom, and Missouri rejected Amendment 3, which would have restricted abortion, 55% to 45%, while Idaho voters declined to repeal the state's abortion ban. Democrats who made abortion central — Abdul El-Sayed, Chris Pappas, and Jon Ossoff — won Senate races.
