Against late term abortions unless mother's life is at risk

A deputy campaign manager said, "Bob opposes late-term abortions unless the life of the mother is at risk. As Senator, Bob will vet each judicial nominee on their own merit and record. He thought Judge Neil Gorsuch was an excellent choice and would generally be supportive of nominees who fit that profile." Source: Politics DW on 2018 New Jersey Senate race , Feb 26, 2018

CC:Publicly fund abortions.

Hugin supports the CC survey question on funding abortion

The Christian Coalition Voter Guide inferred whether candidates agree or disagree with the statement, 'Public Funding of Abortions (Such as Govt. Health Benefits and Planned Parenthood)' Christian Coalition's self-description: "Christian Voter Guide is a clearing-house for traditional, pro-family voter guides. We do not create voter guides, nor do we interview or endorse candidates."
