<\/div>

Gallup is reporting<\/a> that when it comes to male voters, Romney leads Obama by eight percentage points. But when it comes to female voters, Obama leads Romney by eight points.<\/p>\n

The Planned Parenthood Action Fund is working to help Obama in two battleground states by spending $3.2 million<\/a> on TV ads in Virginia and Ohio. These ads<\/a> \u201cwill likely emphasize Romney\u2019s support for overturning Roe v. Wade, the court decision establishing a right to an abortion, and his pledge to eliminate funding for Planned Parenthood.\u201d<\/p>\n

These new ads show that Planned Parenthood Action Fund views the Romney\/Ryan ticket as a threat to abortion on demand and the Planned Parenthood agenda.<\/p>\n

The director of national organizing and electoral campaigns at Planned Parenthood Action Fund, Deirdre Schifeling, explains<\/a>:<\/p>\n

We have purchased ad time in northern Virginia, in Columbus, Ohio, and Toledo, Ohio, because they have high concentrations of undecided voters or swing voters.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re going to layer that with mail, phone, door-to-door canvassing and a significant online buy.<\/p>\n

We are very focused also on swing women likely voters.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The Obama campaign also announced<\/a> a \u201cRomney\/Ryan: Wrong For Women\u201d tour, which started Saturday in Las Vegas.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
