Ciattarelli had a bunch of anti abortion laws lined up for New Jersey
Advocates on both sides of the reproductive rights fight agree the abortion landscape could look vastly different in New Jersey under a Republican governor, with Ciattarelli vowing to defund Planned Parenthood, fund antiabortion pregnancy centers, require parental
notification for minors seeking abortions, and pass a bill now stalled in the Statehouse that would largely ban abortion after 20 weeks.
Abortion rights supporters fear New Jersey’s gubernatorial trends could prevail and land Ciattarelli the win. It’s been more than 60 years since either party won the governorship three elections in a row, as Sherrill is seeking to do this year.
