Missouri abortion-rights amendment could be axed from the ballot after ruling
SUMMARY: A Missouri circuit judge ruled that the wording of a proposed abortion rights amendment for the November ballot is insufficient to inform voters of its implications. Although the ruling does not remove the measure from the ballot, proponents have until Tuesday to appeal to the Missouri Supreme Court. The court will hear the case on the same day the state finalizes the ballot for printing. The amendment aims to enshrine the right to abortion in the state constitution.
A Missouri judge on Friday ruled that an abortion-rights campaign did not meet legal requirements to qualify for the November ballot, potentially thwarting a yearslong effort to undo the state’s near-total abortion ban.
