Abortion

A good example of how democracy works will be show cased over the next couple of elections in Missouri. The current law in Missouri says no abortions at any time unless the life of the mother is at risk. Polls show that 58% of respondents in Missouri approve abortions in the first eight weeks. In time the will of the voters will take over and the laws will be changed. This is how it is supposed to work. National polls show that most people feel that abortions in the first 12 weeks should be legal and this is how it will shake out now that each state has a say. 90% of abortions occur in the first 12 weeks.
