Abortion rights advocates had a strong showing in Tuesday’s midterm elections, holding several key governorships and beating back Republican gains in state legislatures. And though several abortion-related ballot measures have not yet been called, most states with abortion on the ballot appear likely to have voted in favor of protections. The results indicate how much of an impact the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade — which dismantled federal abortion rights and allowed states to ban the procedure — had on an election that many expected to be a referendum on President Joe Biden, whose approval remains low, and on continually high inflation rates. The outcomes of these votes will drastically shape what abortion access looks like in the months and years to come. The Supreme Court’s summer ruling injected new life into Democratic campaigns across the country, and several built their election efforts explicitly around protecting abortion rights. Joint polling from the Associated Press and Kaiser Family Foundation suggests that the ruling had a “major impact” on how Democrats and women ages 18 to 49 voted this year.
