Here is a ranking of states from the lowest to the highest [[abortion]] rates per 100 pregnancies. Notice how the ranking correlates closely with the [[George W. Bush|Bush]] v. [[John Kerry|Kerry]] outcomes in the [[2004 presidential election]]. Notable exceptions are indicated in bold, with the first two exceptions ([[Wisconsin]] and [[Minnesota]]) only narrowly going for Kerry, and the last exception ([[Nevada]]) only narrowly going for Bush.<ref>http://www.guttmacher.org/pubs/2006/09/12/USTPstats.pdf</ref>
