Fr. Pivonka on Record Turnout for Ohio Abortion Vote | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

A hastily-called summer special election in Ohio has seen an off-the-chart turnout. The election was pushed by Republicans to increase the difficulty of passing amendments to the Ohio constitution, hoping to halt one in November’s election that guarantees abortion rights. With the US Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade over a year ago, many states struggle to find enough poll workers to manage election turnout over this highly controversial issue. Father Dave Pivonka, President of Franciscan University in Steubenville, Ohio, joins us to discuss the situation further. He comments on why the vote is critical for the state, why pro-abortion activists are upsetting established legislation, and how Ohio may serve as a first case study for other states in a post Roe v. Wade world. Don't miss out on the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
