Colorado GOP Candidate Faces Scrutiny Over Abortion Stance

Richard Holtorf struggles to explain his support for girlfriend's abortion while opposing abortion rights for others.

Holtorf, a state representative, defended paying for his girlfriend's abortion in 1986.
He has consistently voted for restrictive abortion measures, including a 2020 bill banning abortions after 22 weeks.
In a recent interview, Holtorf was questioned about this apparent contradiction by local news anchor Kyle Clark.
Holtorf claimed to respect his girlfriend's choice but maintained a pro-life stance for policy decisions.
Clark pressed Holtorf on why he seeks to deny other women the choice he supported for his girlfriend.
