Nevada voters approved Question 6 on Tuesday, adding abortion rights to the state constitution in its second required vote, according to The Hill, Washington Examiner and The Center Square. The measure had passed in 2024 with about 64% support. With 86% of the vote counted, it led 62.3% to 37.7%, the Examiner reports. The Hill, citing Decision Desk HQ, reports that the measure protects abortion up to viability and lets the state restrict it afterward, except when needed to protect the life or health of the patient. Abortion was previously legal in Nevada to 24 weeks. Proponents said the amendment guards against further restrictions after the 2022 Supreme Court decision overturning Roe v. Wade. Opponents said its language could allow later abortions than current law permits.
