A Fargo representative believes North Dakota voters would reject two anti-abortion bills approved this session -- if given the opportunity.

Kathy Hawken was among the group of senators and representatives who urged Governor Dalrymple to veto the measures this week.

The republican lawmaker says her mail box is four-to-one against the legislation.

Hawken says it’s not a republican or democratic issue but a personal issue.

One bill bans abortion as early as six weeks and another prohibits women from having the procedure based on gender or genetic defect.

Hawken says it puts a real big sign on North Dakota saying don’t come live here because we are pretty narrow minded.
