GOP Senators Say Kansas Abortion Result A 'Wake-Up Call' For Party

WASHINGTON ― Republican senators were surprised by Tuesday’s huge win for abortion rights in Kansas, of all places, even as they sought to downplay the electoral implications for their party ahead of November’s midterm elections.
“It’s definitely a wake-up call for us,” Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) acknowledged on Wednesday.
“Kansas, which is a pretty red state ― it’s hard to find the words. I think people should look at it,” added Sen. Thom Tillis (R-N.C.) when asked for his reaction on the vote.
In the first election test after the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, Kansans rejected an amendment advanced by the right that would have stripped abortion protections from their state constitution — a huge win for abortion rights advocates that will likely set the tone for what’s to come nationally.
Democrats said the vote, which favored protecting abortion rights by nearly 20 percentage points, as well as historic voter turnout in the primary election, sent a loud message to the nation that Americans support abortion rights. They predicted the GOP would come to rue helping overturn Roe at the ballot box.
