Ohio’s Democrat nominee for governor indicated that there should no government restrictions on when a woman can get an abortion during a MSNBC interview on Wednesday.
After winning her primary on Tuesday, Nan Whaley, former Mayor of Dayton, will face off against Republican Governor Mike DeWine in Ohio’s gubernatorial election this November. MSNBC anchor Chuck Todd interviewed the Democrat on Wednesday, asking her to weigh in on the Supreme Court possibly overturning Roe v. Wade, and where she drew the line on abortion rights.
“Can you sketch out your position on this? Where do you draw limits on the issue of abortion?” he asked.
Whaley argued that “we need to make sure” women have “access” and that government shouldn’t be involved.
“I don’t think government should be involved in it. I think this should be between the doctor and the family and the woman that is going through this,” she said, before touting her support from the largest abortion provider in the country, Planned Parenthood.
