Senate Democrats are
targeting three vulnerable GOP senators from New Hampshire, Ohio and Pennsylvania who voted to defund Planned Parenthood and with good reason. Check out the top lines from
polls conducted in the three states.
• 66 percent of New Hampshire voters oppose defunding Planned Parenthood’s preventive health services, including 72 percent of Independents.
• 65 percent of Ohio voters oppose defunding Planned Parenthood’s preventive health services, including 59 percent of Independents.
• 69 percent of Pennsylvania voters oppose defunding Planned Parenthood’s preventive health services, including 69 percent of Independents.
In addition, about three quarters of voters in each state disapprove of the idea of shutting down the government to defund the organization.
Republicans picked this fight, Mitch McConnell fast-tracked the vote in the Senate and Sens. Kelly Ayotte (NH), Rob Portman (OH), and Pat Toomey (PA) voted for it. Thank you.
