DALLAS — The U.S. Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe vs. Wade has sounded the bell for a new round in the fight over abortion rights that will be staged in ballot boxes instead of courtrooms.
The November midterm elections provide the first test of how the nation will respond to Friday’s ruling, and activists on both sides are rallying supporters.
In Texas and across the nation, voters will either elect candidates to pass laws reinstating abortion rights, or they will choose conservative legislators to uphold anti-abortion legislation.
