Wade, the landmark 1973 case that legalized abortion. It will be waged by the organization\u2019s political and advocacy arms and will focus on governor\u2019s offices, U.S. Senate seats, and legislative races in nine states where access to abortion could be restricted or expanded depending on the outcome at the ballot.<\/p>\n<p>Planned Parenthood says its spending will help remind voters in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin what\u2019s at stake in a bid to drive turnout by Democratic and independent voters.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWho wins in these midterm elections will determine whether a state has access to abortion and potentially determine whether we will face a national abortion ban,\u201d said Jenny Lawson, the executive director of Planned Parenthood Votes. \u201cWe will be clear about who is on which side.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this month in red-state Kansas, voters rejected by nearly 20 percentage points a constitutional amendment that would have allowed the legislature to advance a ban on abortion.<\/p>\n<p>Whether it truly is a galvanizing issue will become clear after Election Day, Nov. 8.<\/p>\n<p>Planned Parenthood says it intends to contact 6 million voters through door knocking, phone calls, digital advertising, mailers, and radio ads. It has already run some TV ads in Wisconsin, where Republicans control the statehouse and where Democratic Gov. Tony Evers and Republican U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson are up for reelection.<\/p>\n<p>It also is launching a website, takecontrol2022.com.<\/p>\n<p>While the Supreme Court\u2019s ruling in June effectively left setting abortion policy to the states, Planned<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WASHINGTON\u2014Planned Parenthood plans to spend a record $50 million ahead of November\u2019s midterm elections, pouring money into contests where access to abortion will be on the ballot.
