At a recent hog roast fundraiser for the Clark County Republican Party, Ohio Right to Life CEO Peter Range offered his audience a stark warning: The outcome of Ohio's Nov. 7 vote on abortion rights will reverberate far beyond the state.
"They feel like if they can win here, they'll take this roadmap to the rest of the country," he said of abortion rights groups. "So our battle here is important, not only for the kids' lives at stake and the culture of the state, but also for the rest of the nation."
Ohioans United for Reproductive Rights, the coalition supporting the amendment, has raised almost $40 million since February, compared with just under $27 million for Protect Women Ohio, the coalition opposing the referendum, according to campaign filings last week. Takerr Lowery, a 45-year-old IT administrator who answered the door, said he would vote in favor of the amendment.Another resident, Tracy Austin, said she still couldn't believe Ohio lawmakers had voted to take away abortion rights.
Not everyone was supportive. One woman spoke through a screened window, telling a canvasser, "I'm voting no because I don't believe in murder." In addition to get-out-the-vote pushes in reliably Republican areas, the anti-abortion coalition has sought to persuade independent and even Democratic voters by labeling the amendment as extreme.
