Abortion is on the ballot in Tuesday's key elections

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

61% : In a memo sent Monday, Planned Parenthood's PAC called out anti-abortion politicians for "deceiving" voters and predicted victories across the states.
52% : That effort failed, but Secretary of State Frank LaRose (R), a vocal opponent of the measure who is running for U.S. Senate, used language favored by anti-abortion groups to write the official summary that will appear on the ballot.
51% : But she has also received the backing of several anti-abortion groups in the state.
50% : McCaffrey has touted his endorsement from Planned Parenthood, which sponsored an ad campaign attacking Carluccio on abortion.
47% : "When Ohioans understand the sweeping consequences of enshrining this measure in the state constitution, whether they are pro-choice or pro-life, they understand it is far too extreme and we see minds change right before our eyes," said Kelsey Pritchard, director of state public affairs at the anti-abortion group Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America.
42% : Abortion is looming large in the race.
40% : Abortion is on the ballot on Tuesday, and key elections in Ohio, Virginia and Pennsylvania will be a test of the staying power of the issue more than a year after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade.
22% : Gov. Mike DeWine (R), who signed the six-week ban in 2019, has suggested that if Issue 1 is defeated, he will consider adding exceptions for rape and incest into current law.
