Elections New Hampshire GOP Senate candidate lied about his record on abortion rights
By Kaishi Chhabra -May 13, 2022 4:17 PM
'We are SO close to ending abortion once and for all,' New Hampshire Republican Kevin Smith said in a recent campaign text.
New Hampshire Republican Kevin Smith, who is running for U.S. Senate, misled the public this week about his own extreme views on abortion rights.
Smith, the town manager of Londonderry, New Hampshire, is running to unseat incumbent Sen. Maggie Hassan (D-NH) in this November's midterm elections.
In an interview with local news station WMUR on Monday night, Smith claimed that while he opposes abortion, he has "always" supported exceptions to a blanket abortion ban.
