Mourdock said on Thursday that his popularity had been unaffected by the fallout. Asked about voters who might not vote for him because of the remarks, Mourdock said: I havent heard of those voters, the Indianapolis Star reported.
When Mourdock was given an example of one voter who had, in fact, stopped supporting him, he said: I assured all women that the issue of rape is a serious issue. It is not one that my God condones. If anyone thinks that I would condone that, thats a ludicrous point of view.
Asked if his campaign had gained votes after the abortion comment, the Star said Mourdock replied: I know we did.
