SENATE OVERRRIDES HENRY VETO

The State Senate this morning voted 37-11 to override Governor Henry's veto of an anti-abortion bill.
The Senate vote approving the bill earlier was 38-10.
All those who voted this morning to sustain the override are Democrats. Included are Andrew Rice, candidate for the Democratic nomination for the U. S. Senate, and Senate Co-President Pro Tem Mike Morgan.
Supporters of the bill expect a similar result in the House, which may take up the override immediately.
