美联社宣布弗吉尼亚州三项修宪公投全部通过:生育自由修正案入宪

11月3日晚,弗吉尼亚州2026年中期选举计票推进,美联社宣布,该州三项州宪法修正案全部获得通过。最先宣布的是第一项确立生育自由权利的修正案:在已上报88.53%投票站、约73%预计选票已统计时,赞成票为1643326票,反对票为1055943票,美联社据此作出确认。该修正案规定,弗吉尼亚州宪法将保护个人就产前护理、分娩、产后护理、避孕、堕胎、流产处理与生育治疗等事项作出并实现自身决定的自由,同时保护医护人员与患者不因此受罚,并允许在妊娠晚期对堕胎加以限制,除非患者健康面临风险或妊娠无法存活。
随后,美联社又宣布另外两项修正案通过:第二项删除州宪法中将婚姻定义为一男一女结合的条文,并禁止州政府基于性别、性别认同或种族拒绝向两名成年人发放结婚证;第三项为重罪犯出狱后自动恢复投票权并确立投票基本权利。同日,弗吉尼亚州选民还投票选举联邦参议员与全部11名联邦众议员,美联社已在投票站关闭后不久确认民主党参议员马克·沃纳连任。全部结果在官方认证前均为非官方结果。
AP Declares All Three Virginia Constitutional Amendments Passed, Including Reproductive Freedom
On the night of November 3, as counting advanced in Virginia's 2026 midterm elections, the Associated Press declared that all three of the state's constitutional amendments had passed. The first to be called was the amendment establishing a fundamental right to reproductive freedom: with 88.53% of precincts reporting and about 73% of the expected vote counted, 'yes' votes stood at 1,643,326 and 'no' votes at 1,055,943, and the AP called the measure on that basis. The amendment provides that Virginia's constitution will protect an individual's freedom to make and carry out decisions on prenatal care, childbirth, postpartum care, contraception, abortion, miscarriage management and fertility treatment, protects health care providers and patients from punishment for such decisions, and allows restrictions on third-trimester abortion unless the patient's health is at risk or the pregnancy is not viable.
The AP subsequently declared the other two amendments passed as well: the second removes the state constitution's definition of marriage as the union of one man and one woman and bars the state from denying marriage licenses to two adults based on sex, gender identity or race; the third automatically restores voting rights to people convicted of felonies after they complete their sentences and establishes voting as a fundamental right. The same day, Virginia voters also chose a U.S. senator and all 11 U.S. House members; the AP confirmed Democratic Senator Mark Warner's reelection shortly after polls closed. All results are unofficial until certified.
