Hadley Duvall, the Kentuckian shown in the ad, sounded unmoved by Cameron’s expression of empathy, responding: “It wasn’t really to share my story just with him.
It should be their choice.”The ad went viral after its release last month, putting the debate about abortion exceptions at the forefront of the Kentucky governor's race.
In the ad, Duvall talks about having been raped by her stepfather when she was 12 years old.
Beshear has denounced the near-total abortion ban as extremist, pointing to the lack of rape and incest exceptions.
Duvall said Tuesday that she sees Cameron's support of the current ban as untenable.
