The Supreme Court of Arkansas has ordered Secretary of State John Thurston to begin counting the volunteer signatures gathered for the Arkansas Abortion Amendment.
The letter @arlibertynow just delivered to Sec. of State John Thurston's office.

“By overwhelming margins, Wisconsinites are telling us they oppose overturning the result of the April 2023 election with threats to impeach Justice Protasiewicz."
