Missouri Senate race shows just how hard it is to campaign on abortion in the heartland
KANSAS CITY, Mo. – If any Senate race should be a referendum on abortion access it’s the one in Missouri.
The Republican official running to represent the Show Me State, Eric Schmitt, used his previous post as Missouri’s attorney general to ban all abortions in the state even in cases of rape and incest, just minutes after the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. Missouri was the first state to enact its so-called trigger law.
