Davis TV ad focuses on Abbott disability

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — With less than a month to go before the Texas governor’s election, a new television ad by Democrat Wendy Davis focuses attention on Republican Greg Abbott’s use of a wheelchair, accusing him of not siding with victims like himself.

The 30-second ad, which the Davis campaign said Friday would start running across the state, drew a swift rebuke from Abbott’s campaign, which called it “disgusting” and “desperate.”
