Donald Trump has been declared the 47th President of the United States, marking his return to the White House. This election saw voters in seven states, including Missouri, enshrine reproductive rights in their constitutions, despite Trump's previous efforts to restrict abortion access. In Arizona, voters established abortion as a fundamental right, overriding a 15-week ban. Colorado and Nevada also passed measures to protect abortion rights, while Maryland strengthened existing protections. Florida's initiative fell short, but still showed significant support for abortion access. Missouri became the first state to end a total abortion ban since the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade. Meanwhile, Nebraska passed a restrictive amendment, allowing for more limitations on abortion. Overall, the election results reflect a complex landscape for reproductive rights across the country.
