Abortion is now front and center in the gubernatorial race in Pennsylvania after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, leaving states to individually set abortion access laws.

The race is very tight between Pennsylvania state Sen. Doug Mastriano, a Republican, and Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro, a Democrat. The latest election poll by the American Association of Retired Persons (AARP), released two days before the Supreme Court ruling on abortion, showed Shapiro holding a slim lead—49 percent to 46 percent—over Mastriano.
