It's clear to pretty much everyone who's paying attention that this crucial midterm election could turn on two things: rural voters and freedom to make your own decisions.
As a native North Dakotan, neither of those surprise me, especially after last summer's ballot referendum on abortion rights in Kansas. Kansas voters said no to extremist attacks on our freedoms, and turned out in historic numbers to protect women's right to choose.
Unfortunately, a woman's right to choose remains under attack around the country—and here at One Country, we're watching a few Senate races that could give Republicans the majority they need to enact a nationwide abortion ban:
Wisconsin: Sen. Ron Johnson—currently pushing a ballot proposal to ban abortion with NO exceptions—is neck-and-neck in the polls with Democrat Mandela Barnes.
Georgia: Democratic Sen. Raphael Warnock is fending off a challenge from handpicked Trump candidate Herschel Walker, who also supports a ban without exceptions.
Nevada: Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto is tied with GOPer Adam Laxalt, who called the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision "a joke" and supports a statewide abortion ban in Nevada.
Pennsylvania: Anti-choice Trump puppet Dr. Oz, who doctors call "a major threat to public health" is within the margin of error against Democrat Jon Fetterman.
Kansas voters said they didn't want the government making personal health decisions—but voters in other states have different takes on this crucial issue, and we'd love to hear yours.
In my time in public service, I always found input from grassroots supporters like you to be invaluable. I hope you'll take a moment to weigh in—I guarantee it will make our efforts in the last stretch of this campaign even more focused and effective.
Thanks so much,
Heidi
