Quote of the Day 9-25-10
Social issues might be taking a back seat to health care and the deficit in a number of national races, but not so in CA’s Senate race between Sen. Barbara Boxer and former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina. The Sunlight Foundation… reports that 87% of the independent expenditures made in the race thus far have come from groups that advocate on abortion issues:
Among these two candidates, pro-life groups so far have spent $186,000, while pro-choice spending amounts to $41,000….
The pro-life group, the Susan B. Anthony List, has spent the most money on this issue in that race so far. They’ve invested $166,100 in buying web ads and paying for phone calls in support of Fiorina. They’ve also campaigned against Boxer with Google advertisements, spending $20,000….
The… pro-choice group NARAL spent $38,700 opposing Fiorina with print advertisements. NARAL has also spent $3,480 sending out print materials supporting Boxer.
