NEW YORK (Sept. 23) - An unusually large contingent of female Republican candidates with strong anti-abortion views is heating up debate on the issue and could change the political equation in the next Congress. In California, Nevada, Delaware and New Hampshire, the GOP nominees for seats in the U.S. Senate are women who favor outlawing most abortions. All have been endorsed by Sarah Palin, who calls herself a "pro-life feminist." A win by any one of them would fill a void. All 17 women now in the Senate, including four Republicans, support relatively broad abortion rights. Of the four new ...
Republican Kelly Ayotte, who squeaked through to victory over a Tea Party-backed candidate to win New Hampshire's GOP Senate nomination, leads Democratic Rep. Paul Hodes by a bare 47 percent to 43 percent among likely voters, according to a Public Policy Polling survey conducted Sept. 11-12. Nine percent are undecided. The margin of error is 2.2 points. The poll, conducted before the primary, said that had businessman Ovide Lamontagne been the GOP nominee, he would be leading Hodes by 47 percent to 44 percent with 10 percent undecided. Both Ayotte and Lamontagne attracted about half of ...

Michael Castle. And Buffalo developer Carl Paladino, a political newcomer allied with the Tea Party, defeated former congressman Rick Lazio in New York's Republican gubernatorial primary. The Delaware primary was a fitting climax to a season of noisy contests between candidates anointed by the Republican establishment because they seemed more electable, and those ...
In one of the country's tightest and most-anticipated Republican Senate primaries, New Hampshire former attorney general Kelly Ayotte beat conservative lawyer Ovide Lamontagne by just 1,600 votes. With 90 percent of the vote counted Wednesday afternoon, the New York Times had Ayotte in the lead over Lamontagne by a mere one percentage point. Both Republican candidates had received high-profile endorsements from conservative leaders: Lamontagne, considered the Tea Party favorite, received (via Twitter) the endorsement of Sen. Jim DeMint (R-S.C.), as well as Tea Party leader and Colorado Senate ...

Former New Hampshire Attorney General Kelly Ayotte, long considered a shoo-in for the GOP Senate nomination, still is out in front with Tuesday's primary at hand but she has seen her lead shrink over Ovide Lamontagne, a Tea Party-favored lawyer. Ayotte tops the GOP field with 37 percent followed by Lamontagne who now is at 30 percent after lagging far behind for much of the year, according to a Public Policy Polling survey conducted Sept. 11-12. Twenty-eight percent of Republicans are divided among five other candidates and 5 percent are undecided. The margin of error is 2.9 points. At one ...
