Some of the nation's biggest swing states are electing governors this fall. These are also places where the end of Roe v. Wade would have immediate sweeping impact. POLITICO_Steve breaks down 5 states to watch.

precedent is thrusting a new, hot-button issue into the midterm elections: abortion.

If the high court’s eventual decision does eviscerate federal abortion rights and return the issue to the states, it will shine the spotlight on the 36 governor’s races on the November ballot. The list includes major toss-up swing states like Pennsylvania — where, if Republicans can flip the governorship and keep control of the state legislature, they could approve new restrictions on abortion next year.

Meanwhile, two incumbent Republican governors with national ambitions, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, have been at the vanguard of new abortion bans in anticipation of the Supreme Court’s decision. They’re both likely to win reelection this fall. Watch this week’s episode of Inside the Forecast with Steve Shepard to hear more on how abortion rights could impact the midterms.

POLITICO_Steve The Constitution doesn't mention abortion once, medical procedures are not mentioned in the Constitution. Anything not enumerated in the Constitution goes to the states. That's how our country works, the ppl decide

POLITICO_Steve They should make a issue out of Desantis investing millions in russia

POLITICO_Steve Well if Americans want this man as their leader that is truly sad.

POLITICO_Steve The sad thing about making abortion illegal is that it sounds good and moral before you do it and it’s not until after it’s done that you reap the horrors of what you have sown.
