Thanks!

I've been saying all along that Issue 1 wasn't about abortion but it was simply the public face placed on the issue by the Republicans to gin up the base.  The real issue was power.  They wanted to block any future anti-gerrymandering attempts and then push their agenda unabated by us pesky voters

It should have never been a right vs left, liberal vs conservative issue...it was a legislature vs voter issue
