Democratic-leaning voters weigh bans on trans girls in school sports

Original: Voters in these Democratic strongholds could ban trans girls from girls' school sports

Voters in several Democratic-leaning areas are set to decide ballot measures that would ban transgender girls from competing in girls' school sports. The votes would place transgender athlete restrictions before electorates in places usually resistant to such policies, testing how far support for the bans extends beyond Republican-led states. The measures have become a flashpoint in the wider national debate over transgender participation in school athletics.

Why now: Ballot measures on transgender athletes in typically Democratic areas challenge assumptions about where support for such bans lies.
