ARIZONA & NEBRASKA VOTERS APPROVE TRANSGENDER ATHLETE BANS

Even on a big night for Democrats, voters in two states backed ballot measures barring transgender girls and women from girls' and women's sports (Politico, Bloomberg Government).
π΅ ARIZONA
A state with a Democratic governor and two Democratic senators approved a ballot initiative further restricting transgender students from playing on teams that match their gender identity (Politico).
π½ NEBRASKA
Voters also approved a measure restricting transgender athletes (Politico).
π WHY IT MATTERS
Per Politico, the movement "showed its message could resonate beyond Republican strongholds."
π³οΈ Similar measures were also on the ballot in Colorado and Washington (The 19th).
Should states decide this at the ballot box? π
