The New York Times reports that in the 3 November 2026 midterms voters passed ballot measures on abortion, transgender rights, voting rules, redistricting and taxes — approving abortion rights in Virginia and Nevada, banning noncitizen voting in seven states, and rejecting both a Republican gerrymander in Missouri and a Democratic one in Maryland. Experts called the results a partisan, money-driven story that upheld the abortion status quo and is likely to test Citizens United in Montana.
