Conclusion
From the Paper:
"South Dakota, like several other states, is recognized for its historical stance against abortion and, yet, as reflective of other states, its stance has significantly shifted. This is because the majority of people believe that abortion should be legal because it serves the community of women who need to have a pregnancy terminated for a whole variety of different reasons. It should, therefore, be there as a means of helping those who have fallen pregnant due to violence, to those who are simply too young to responsibly raise a child, for mothers who face raising a deformed child, and for those who may suffer serious health problems if allowing the pregnancy to continue."
