Florida’s voters on Tuesday chose to keep a six-week ban on abortion in place, rejecting efforts to amend the state’s Constitution to allow access up until viability, which is about 24 weeks. Abortion rights proved one of the more significant draws to the polls for Florida voters, but supporters fell short of the 60% margin needed to enshrine access in the state constitution. The proposed, high-stakes amendment has been the target of millions of dollars in advertising as well as intense grassroots canvassing campaigns. More than 1 million Florida residents signed petitions to put Amendment 4 on the ballot in Florida.
