Ohio Democrats Pin Hopes on Abortion Referendum for 2024 Victory
Vulnerable Ohio Democrats facing reelection in a predominantly red state are actively supporting a November ballot fight to enshrine abortion rights in the state Constitution. They are campaigning for the amendment, attacking their GOP opponents for defending the state's six-week abortion ban, and hoping that supporting abortion rights in 2023 will position them for victory in 2024. The results of the referendum and the margin of victory will shape strategy and messaging in Ohio and other battleground states, as well as Democratic campaigns for the White House and Congress. Republicans are confident they can defeat the abortion-rights amendment this year and shift the 2024 conversation to other issues.
