NEW JERSEY, Dec 8 (LSN) – New Jersey lawmakers voted Thursday 60-15 to override “moderate” Republican Governor Christine Whitman’s veto of a state ban on partial-birth abortion. “It is a wonderful victory for life,” said Marie Tasy, director of the New Jersey Right to Life Committee. The legislation is expected to be presented in the Senate in December by Senate President Donald T. DiFrancesco. Tasy said she is confident the Senate will override the governor, thus making New Jersey the 18th state to outlaw this most barbarous form of baby-killing.
