BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — Now that North Dakota has all but enacted what would be two of the most restrictive abortion laws in the country, the state’s governor faces a choice.

Or he could veto the bills the Legislature approved and that have enough support to pass without him. Such a move that would draw the ire of social conservatives.
