A recent poll shows that abortion is one of the most important issues that's driving voters to the polls in November.
When the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, it jump started the midterm elections with a thunderclap. Now, with just weeks left until the election, abortion rights appear to be a defining issue for voters, especially for a group of Delaware County moms.
"That could save her life one day. Abortion is so much more than just sleeping around and deciding that you don't want that child," said Jenkins. In the races for governor and U.S. Senate, the differences are stark. Democrat for governor, Josh Shapiro, supports the Pennsylvania law allowing abortion up to the 24th week. Republican Doug Mastriano is a foe of abortion, who has implied he would support a so-called "heartbeat bill," which bans the abortion procedure after six weeks. Democratic Senate candidate, John Fetterman is pro-choice, while republican, Mehmet Oz opposes abortion.
