NY Pro-Choice Advocates Express Concerns Over GOP Candidate for US Senate
Politics on the Hudson: NARAL “extremely concerned” about DioGuardi’s abortion views (updated), by Cara Matthews:
NARAL Pro-Choice New York said in a statement today that it is “extremely concerned” about U.S. Senate candidate Joseph DioGuardi’s stance on abortion.
“DioGuardi opposes abortion even in cases of rape and incest,” said NARAL, which has been active in state and federal campaigns this year. “Not only is this view well outside the values of New Yorkers—75 percent of whom are pro-choice—it is far beyond the national mainstream.”
DioGuardi won a Republican primary last week against David Malpass, former Bear Stearns chief economist, and Bruce Blakeman, former Nassau County legislator. He will also be on the Conservative Party line Nov. 2. He faces U.S. Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, who was appointed to the position last year. . . .
