“This was anticipated. Anybody in politics with two brain cells knew that this issue was going to come up at the end of June, most likely,” said Dave Carney, a New Hampshire-based Republican strategist. “So now, we have May and June — but there are 185 days until the election.”
Carney, who is consulting for Chuck Morse, the state Senate president seeking the Republican nomination to challenge Sen. Maggie Hassan (D-N.H.), said Morse is “not running away from abortion” and has articulated his position when asked. But in a state where abortions are legal up to 24 weeks — and where polling shows the majority of voters favor some restrictions on the procedure — the campaign prefers to move on to other issues.
