Despite the efforts of maverick-turned-Bush-Bitch John McCain, the people of the state of Arizona, in the tradition of their late beloved Senator Barry Goldwater, rejected an initiative that would have written discrimination into their state constitution.
In South Dakota, a pretty staunch pro-life state, voters rejected a law that would have banned virtually all abortions (and did so by a 12-point margin).
Voters in Missouri narrowly approved a state constitutional amendment protecting stem cell research.
And California and Oregon voters defeated measures that would have required parents to be notified before a girl under 18 could get an abortion.
