The pro-abortion issue would be of concern to me, so I took your invitation and googled it. Here is what I found, in his own words:
“I am the most states rights advocate of all the candidates (though Vinnie may be with me on these issues as well, he lacks the funds or campaign infrastructure to mount a credible race). I oppose any federal restrictions on abortion, oppose any federal funding of abortion, and believe Roe VS. Wade to have been wrongly decided and
would vote to nominate Federal Judges who want to overturn it. While I am personally opposed to partial birth abortions, this too is a states rights issue. I do not believe the Federal government has the constitutional authority to ban it, but I would like individual states
to ban it, and feel that neither the Federal Government nor federal courts have the right to interfere.”
That’s a long way from being pro-abortion. Actually what he is suggesting is a strategy that many in the pro-life circles agree with: get rid of Roe v Wade and let the states decide. AKA divide and conquer.
It would appear that you’re taking liberties with the candidate on his actual position on this issue.
As for the residency of the petition gatherers, the allegation here is petty. Election laws are often structured to trap the unwary.

with respect to his personal feelings, he would not make it illegal, women have a right to abort, he is against 3rd trimester,
BUT FIRST TRIMESTR OR SECOND ONE ITS OKAY
Hear it in his own words
So advocating that the murder of innocent life is acceptable if his preferred process is followed is a stand for ‘liberty’???
