“All Stivers needs is some of the votes that went to the Libertarian Noble and Eckhart the Independent.

Noble got 14k votes, Eckhart 13k.”

Eckhart was an anti-abortion activist, right? He picked the wrong district in which to run-—Stivers is pro-life (unless I’m confusing him with someone else).

According to this website, Stivers isn’t pro-life:

Although this website cited him for voting a pro-life position:

I believe he is. The district has a history of that. There was a minor party candidate (pro-life) running a few years back that drained a lot of votes and nearly handed the seat to the 'Rats. This election, combined with the groundswell demographic shifts, it actually did.

This shows the danger of minor-party candidates who don't have a prayer of being elected costing a pro-life candidate an election. I'm sure the minor party candidate thought he was "making a statement" or "teaching them a lesson", and in the end helped defeat a pro-life candidate and sent a rabidly pro-abortion 'Rat to Congress to help implement Oscumbag's pro-abortion agenda. Lot of good that did the pro-life cause.

Eckhart is a Christian and pro-life. I don’t know if the term “anti-abortion activist” would be an accurate moniker for him, though.
