Here is video of Nevada GOP Senate Candidate Sue Lowden's first campaign ad for television. The ad emphasizes her family roots to Nevada voters. Lowden is running for the GOP Nomination, and is expected to put up a strong challenge to Democrat Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid in this coming Fall's midterm election. She is already leading in some early polls against Reid. . . . (VIDEO)
In 1993, a GOP state senator named Sue Lowden expressed to a reporter support for Roe v. Wade on the 20th anniversary of the decision. Lowden had just been elected from a heavily Democratic district two years after the state’s voters overwhelmingly embedded abortion rights in statute — a referendum Lowden acknowledged Tuesday she supported.
In 2009, a Republican U.S. Senate candidate named Sue Lowden told a conservative publication, Human Events, that Roe v. Wade was a “bad decision.” The comment came after a primary opponent, Danny Tarkanian, had been portraying himself for months as the real anti-abortion candidate to a conservative GOP electorate that will choose a Republican nominee in June.
If circumstantial evidence is to be believed, Lowden is easily convicted of not one, but perhaps two acts of political convenience, tacking left when it was advantageous and then shifting right when the race called for it.
What I Believe
"As a born and raised practicing Catholic, I am pro-life. My personal views on abortion are consistent with the views of my church – and they are the views I carry with me everyday. While this issue has created significant debate and controversy within our states, our political parties and our federal government, my views on abortion will not change should I be fortunate enough to be elected to the U.S. Senate."
Protecting Our Borders
“My border security and immigration policy is really quite simple and it begins by not supporting amnesty, but rather enforcing current, federal laws even if that means building an electronic or physical fence. I believe to stem the flow of illegal immigration, we must secure our borders.”
“. I believe to stem the flow of illegal immigration, we must secure our borders.”
So do most Americans. You go girl!
