Democratic presidential candidate Robert “Beto” O'Rourke appeared to endorse third-trimester abortions during a campaign event in Ohio on March 19.

A woman in the audience asked O'Rourke if he would protect unborn babies considering that third-trimester abortions are not a medical emergency or necessity.
