Parental Notification Ballot Initiatives Defeated

Lost in this week’s excitement over all the other good news from the elections, I overlooked some ballot initiative good news as well. From Women’s eNews: “In Oregon and California, voters defeated measures that would have required doctors to notify a parent before performing an abortion on a minor. Voters defeated California’s Proposition 85 by 54 percent to 46 percent, and Oregon’s Measure 43 was rejected with a 55 percent vote.”
