Abortion advocates said they got one step closer to putting abortion rights on the ballot in Arkansas this November, NBC News reported.

Concretely, Arkansas for Limited Government said its members collected the signatures of over 100,000 registered voters, almost 10,000 over the threshold they needed to submit before the deadline on July 5. The signatures come from at least 50 of the state's 75 counties, another requirement under state law.
