As voters streamed into Bell Avenue Elementary School in the Delaware County borough of Yeadon, Pennsylvania, poll watcher Gabriella Coleman stood by ready to help maintain order. But the 32-year-old lawyer said when she cast her own vote Tuesday, she was focused on reproductive rights above all other issues — including the economy, crime, or threats to democracy.
Coleman said she’d had her first baby 14 months ago. But she and her husband are hesitant to plan their second until they know abortion rights are secure.
”If, God forbid, something were to happen with my pregnancy and I needed to terminate, I want to make sure that that’s something that I’m able to do in the state of Pennsylvania,” Coleman said.
