Great news...Parent notification for abortion failed in CA!!!
Prop. 73 would have required minors to notify a parent before an abortion. It also re-defined life.

The prop. was leading in the polls. The big union/dem organization against Arnie's props did not include this prop. I got lots of anti-73 calls but I heard other Dems did not. There was a limited organization against the proposition. I was worried about it.

The proposition failed. I think the massive organization to get the Dems out to vote in the urban areas worked. The Union organization got Dems out to vote and Dems in California are still pro-choice. This is a great victory for us.

1. I'm SO glad!
I urged everyone I knew to vote against it!

We had a doctor that worked at a clinic do a presentation at our local DFA!

And we got out the vote in our area!

2. Hi Maat--
That was very smart having a clinic doctor present some facts about the entire mess Arnie attempted.

(I know this is a really late response)...

I wanted to post to your thread because I am still so thrilled that this did not pass!

:woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

3. Ha! I'm late replying to you.
I just had a feel-good feeling just thinking about how we defeated that proposition.

Take care!
