The gubernatorial race in New Hampshire has taken a personal turn as two women, Kelly Ayotte and Joyce Craig, vie for the position currently held by Gov. Chris Sununu. While gender has not been a focal point for voters, it has influenced the candidates' stances on abortion and reproductive health care.
Ayotte and Craig have both shared personal stories related to pregnancy loss in their campaign ads, but their approaches to reproductive rights differ. Ayotte emphasizes support for in vitro fertilization, while Craig advocates for broader protections of reproductive rights, asserting that such decisions should belong to women, not politicians.
