TUCSON, Ariz. — Republican Senate hopeful Kari Lake took criticism from both flanks of the abortion debate during a visit to the University of Arizona Thursday evening, as she and other candidates navigate the fallout from this week’s state Supreme Court decision upholding the state’s Civil War-era abortion ban.
She posted her own abortion policy video, à la former President Donald Trump, and has made calls to state lawmakers to push for the repeal of the Civil War-era abortion ban in the Arizona state legislature. But Lake’s evolving attitude is also getting attention from opponents of abortion rights. “We thought when you said you supported the 1864 ban, you meant it,” said a middle-aged man in the crowd at the student union.
