North Carolina races heavily influenced after $5M investment from Planned Parenthood
Fox News
Planned Parenthood is ramping up its efforts ahead of November's midterm elections to help support candidates who would vote to keep abortion legal in the state.
The investment is part of the abortion provider’s $50 million national campaign to protect reproductive rights after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade over the summer.

North Carolina is historically a competitive battleground and even more so with voters potentially thinking the outcome of the midterm elections could determine the legality of abortion in their state.
