Following a flood of campaign ads, Idaho voters rejected a ballot initiative that would have established a right to abortion in the state. Heavy opposition from Catholics and The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints contributed to last week's 55.94% to 44.06% defeat of Proposition 1, the Reproductive Freedom and Privacy Act.
