How to Interpret the Kansas Referendum on Abortion

This episode contains mention of sexual assault.

Kansas this week became the first U.S. state since the fall of Roe v. Wade to put the question of abortion directly to the electorate.

Guest: Mitch Smith, a correspondent covering the Midwest and the Great Plains for The New York Times.
