Opposing sides are in a close race to decide whether women in Kansas have the right to abortion.
Though churches cannot endorse political candidates, they can endorse political campaigns
The ballot is written so that a "yes" vote affirms that "there is no Kansas constitutional right to abortion". Voting against the amendment would keep the constitution as-is, meaning that women in the state do have a right to an abortion. These contrasting Kansas scenes - one inside a church, the other outside a clinic - reflect the deep divide on this issue. Both sides are campaigning on their passionately held views over access to abortion ahead of the vote. And in a state where residents are intensely proud of where they come from, there's a battle over what are truly Kansan values.
"This is a destination spot for people from a four- or five-state radius to come and murder their child," said Richard Kiper III, 49, a conservative Christian and an antique-house restorer.
