The candidate would not explain why he had voted to take what he himself described as a “right” away from women, who like his girlfriend, may decide it is their best option.

“I dont [seek to deny that right],” Holtorf claimed.

Clark shot back: “You have voted to restrict abortion access with legislation.”

“I have,” Holtorf responded. He added he believes women should choose life at every opportunity, but that there should be “exceptions” to restrictions on the practice.

“Is one of the exceptions when Richard Holtorf is the father?” asked Clark.

“No! It’s not about me!” Holtorf responded. “Don’t personalize it and make it about me.”

Hypocrites, one and all. Do not let them fool you for a second. This is about control. This is about power. This is a clear break of the Social Contract.
