    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    The poll was just one of a string of GOP reverses on Tuesday, which also saw Democrats take control of both chambers of the state legislature in Virginia and extend their majority on the Pennsylvania Supreme Court.

    Writing on X, formerly Twitter, North Dakota State Representative Brandon Prichard argued Tuesday’s Issue 1 vote in Ohio should be ignored.

    Ohio has a Republican governor in Mike DeWine, with the GOP also controlling both chambers of the state legislature, though none of these have suggested they will flat out ignore Tuesday’s election result.

    Prichard was challenged by Liam Siegler, a writer who has been published by the conservative National Review, who said: “I don’t like today’s results either but we have a constitution for a reason.”

    Reacting to the news in a statement on Tuesday night, President Joe Biden said: “Ohioans and voters across the country rejected attempts by MAGA Republican elected officials to impose extreme abortion bans.”

    Responding to Tuesday’s election outcomes, House Republican Marjorie Taylor Greene, a GOP hardliner, urged anti-abortion campaigners to produce more graphic adverts to demonstrate that “abortion kills lives.”
