Amendment Four

The former president was asked twice after casting his ballot in Palm Beach, Florida, on Tuesday about a question that the state’s voters are considering to overturn a ban on abortion after six weeks. The first time he was asked, Trump avoided answering, saying instead of the issue that he did “a great job bringing it back to the states.” Pressed a second time, Trump snapped at a reporter saying “you should stop talking about it.”

The groups promoting abortion-rights amendments on the ballots in nine states have outraised their opponents by more than 6 to 1 and are spending far more on ads. The majority of the money is being raised and spent around the question before voters in Florida.

Over the next several days, voters in 10 states will decide whether to enshrine the right to abortion in their constitutions. One of those states is here in Florida where most abortions after six weeks are currently banned. Some states just require a majority vote to pass ballot measures. In Florida, that threshold is higher.

U.S. District Judge Mark Walker extended a temporary restraining order Tuesday, siding with Floridians Defending Freedom. The group created the ads promoting the ballot question that would add abortion rights to the state constitution if it passes Nov. 5. Walker is extending an order that bars Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo from taking any further action to coerce or intimidate broadcasters that run the commercials.

Floridians Protecting Freedom filed a brief that said the 1st District Court of Appeal should reject Florida's arguments that a circuit judge did not have authority to order redrafting the statement.

The ruling was the latest twist in a legal battle about the financial impact statement, which appear with ballot initiatives to provide estimated effects on government revenues and the state budget.

The decision comes several months after the state's Attorney General Ashley Moody asked the Florida Supreme Court to strike down the measure.
