Nov 7 (Reuters) - U.S. voters on Tuesday will cast ballots to choose governors in Kentucky and Mississippi, decide legislative control in Virginia and New Jersey, and determine whether the Ohio state constitution should protect abortion rights.
Beshear’s campaign is touting his record of bringing jobs to Kentucky, supporting public education, expanding healthcare access and setting strict policies to curb the spread of COVID-19.
Cameron is focusing on public safety, learning loss from school closures during the COVID pandemic and culture war issues championed by Republicans nationally, such as opposing gender-affirming care for transgender children.
Republican Governor Tate Reeves is running for reelection against Democrat Brandon Presley, a former small-town mayor and current utility regulator for Northern Mississippi.
A ballot question in Ohio asks voters whether to enshrine abortion rights in the state constitution, a move that would render moot a six-week limit signed into law by Republican Governor Mike DeWine.
The vote is being closely watched as Democrats nationwide hope to add to their string of abortion-related ballot measure wins in 2022 with more such victories in 2024.
