Meanwhile, the Democrats may be getting some indirect help of their own from an undisclosed source. NEWSWEEK has learned that the Turner Foundation, headed by CNN founder Ted Turner, has made a multi-million-dollar grant to two pro-choice groups, NARAL and Planned Parenthood, to help identify pro-choice voters and train “activists” in key states where Democrats are in tight races against anti-abortion Republicans. The foundation has not publicly announced the grant. A spokesman says the money is not intended for “political” purposes.
