since her nomination by President Reagan in 1987.

The "Reagan is a god who can do no wrong" crowd here would be tongue-tied defending this if she is pro-choice.

"Committee Democrats called Raggi a mainstream Republican,..."

Crap.
Just what we need, a Republican that Dimocrats approve of!

She probably has no track record on the issue. Abortion has been legal in New York since even before Roe v. Wade, so there probably have been no challenges to abortion laws that came before her as a federal judge. Her legal experience has been mostly as a federal prosecutor. She is regarded in New York legal circles as a fairly conservative law-and-order type, which is hardly surprising for an ex-prosecutor.
