    Utah = bad or whatever

    There’s only so much a court can do in the face of a hostile and unrepresentative legislature, but to its credit, Utah’s supreme court has refused to let a near total abortion ban take effect, and just in the last day they slapped down the legislature’s attempt to gerrymander the state against the will of the people.
