Should abortion be a constitutional right in your state?
Franklin Graham posted on X on Monday urging Americans to vote and pray about their ballots ahead of the 2026 midterms. Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America issued a parallel update urging Christian and pro-life voters to turn out.
Why it matters
All 435 U.S. House seats and 35 U.S. Senate seats are on the 2026 ballot, and the outcome is expected to directly shape abortion policy nationwide. Several state abortion measures are also before voters in Missouri, Idaho and Nevada.
SBA Pro-Life America reports $80 million in spending and contact with 10.5 million persuadable and low-turnout voters, while RealClearPolitics shows Democrats leading by 8.8 points on congressional control. Whether these leads hold through Election Day remains unresolved.
The players
Franklin Graham
Franklin Graham is an evangelical Christian leader and president of Samaritan's Purse who frequently weighs in on political and cultural issues.
Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America
Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America is a national anti-abortion advocacy organization that works to elect pro-life candidates to federal office.
The details
Graham posted a message on X urging Americans to vote and pray about their ballots. SBA Pro-Life America is reaching voters through face-to-face canvassing and tested messaging, and says the stakes are higher than ever with more than 1.1 million children's lives lost to abortion in America each year.
Timeline
Monday, before Election Day: Graham posts his X message and SBA issues its voter outreach update.
November 2, 2026: The 2026 midterm elections take place.
Political Context
Missouri voters approved a constitutional right to abortion in 2024, and they will now consider reversing that measure in 2026. Ballot measures in Idaho and Nevada add to a midterm cycle where abortion policy is being decided directly by voters.
Voters in Missouri, Idaho and Nevada will directly decide abortion rights questions on their ballots this November. Congressional results will determine which party controls the chamber agenda for the next session.
The takeaway
Ballot measures and congressional control are both on the line this November, so checking your state's ballot questions before Election Day is a practical first step. The outcome will shape abortion policy at both the state and federal level.
What happens next
Election Day for the 2026 midterms falls on November 2, 2026, when voters will decide the 435 House seats, 35 Senate seats and the state abortion measures.
