South Dakota to hold abortion referendum (http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=080428221321.4zqml7t0&show_article=1)

Voters in the midwestern US state of South Dakota will vote in a November referendum on abortion, reviving the country's already polarized debate on the issue, state officials said Monday.

Voters in the conservative state narrowly rejected a total ban on pregnancy termination in 2006, with 56 percent voting no, but exit polls showed a majority would have backed a ban if it had been less strict.

Voters in the conservative state narrowly rejected a total ban on pregnancy termination in 2006, with 56 percent voting no . . .Fifty-six percent is not what I'd call "narrowly," although it's not the "vast majority" that pro-"choice" folks claim support their position.

I also have a hard time calling a state that has given us Tom Daschle and, before him, George McGovern, "conservative." Of course, for most of the DBM, any state not as far left as New York, Massachusetts, or California is "conservative."
