On Abortion: Right to abortion in jeopardy if GOP controls Congress

[Republican opponent Don Bolduc] railed Hassan for her focus on the right to an abortion. "She just wants to hang on with dear life. Well, guess what? Your views are not consistent with the average Granite Stater, number one. Number two, get over it. This is about the economy," Bolduc said.

Hassan has campaigned on the notion that the right to abortion is in jeopardy in all 50 states if Republicans gain control of Congress. Bolduc, though, said if elected, he would not support a 15-week abortion ban recently proposed by Sen. Lindsey Graham. "I would vote no on that because the federal government is way too much in our business. Granite Staters will be better served by working through their legislature to address that issue, not the federal government," Bolduc said.

The Hassan campaign released a digital ad on Monday that focuses on Bolduc's "get over it" comment.
