Stark differences between Bacon, Eastman on abortion could sway voters in Omaha-area House race


By Aaron Sanderford

On the issue of abortion, the contrast could not be clearer in this year's race to represent Nebraska's 2nd Congressional District.

Firm positions staked out by both Rep. Don Bacon, R-Neb., and Democratic challenger Kara Eastman could factor into a potentially close race.

Eastman has told The World-Herald, MSNBC and others that she favors no government restrictions on abortion.

Bacon opposes abortion in all cases except to save the life of a mother and has sought federal restrictions.
