In a nine-station Ohio West Virginia telecast, Senator McGovern faced off with an unseen critic over abortion amnesty and marijuana policy. He said abortion is a states matter and would not back legalization, while suggesting marijuana be treated as a misdemeanor. He also denied job losses from defense cuts and faulted Nixon on pension reform.
