Two-thirds of voters in Eau Claire County want Wisconsin’s abortion law changed.
Nearly 66 percent of voters yesterday voted for an advisory referendum that tells lawmakers in Madison to change the pre-Roe abortion law that bans abortions in every case except to save a mother’s life.
The vote is advisory-only, and won’t change the law. The law, however, is not expected to last. Voters yesterday also elected Judge Janet Protasiewicz to the state Supreme Court. She has all but promised to overrule the current abortion law.
