2018 NH Governor's race: on Abortion


Molly Kelly: Supports abortion rights and is backed by Planned Parenthood

Kelly has repeatedly declared that "as governor I will not allow women's reproductive rights to go backwards. And I promise that all women, regardless of income, will have access to safe legal abortion." She also has highlighted that she's always stood with Planned Parenthood and in recent days has touted her endorsement by the political wing of the powerful national group that provides reproductive health care.

Steve Marchand: Proudly pro-choice

This is a guy--me--who's a lifelong Democrat but has been praised by editorial boards from the Portsmouth Herald to the New Hampshire Union Leader for being fiscally responsible and being really smart with how we raise and how we spend money. And yet I'm also somebody who's proudly pro-choice, pro same-sex marriage, transgender rights, a strong environmentalist, anti-casino gambling. You can do that and you can be fiscally responsible.
