    Former President Trump and GOP defend Herschel Walker after abortion accusation rocks Georgia Senate race.
    CNBC (Moderate Left) • Factual Grade 83% • 5 min read

    The Daily Beast’s article marked the latest blow to Walker's scandal-plagued Senate bid. The Daily Beast quoted an anonymous woman who said she became pregnant when she and Walker were dating in 2009, and that he “urged her to get an abortion.” The report said the woman supported her claims with a receipt from the abortion clinic, a “get well” card from Walker and an image of a personal check signed by him.
    ...
    Walker called the report “a flat-out lie” and vowed to file a defamation lawsuit. Multiple anti-abortion groups also defended Walker. A spokesman for Walker’s campaign tweeted that the candidate had a major fundraising boost in the wake of the story [but] did not share any specific data.
    ...
    Walker has called for a total ban on abortion and recently said he has “always been for life.” Walker and his Democratic rival, incumbent Sen. Raphael Warnock, appear to be neck and neck in polls in the key swing state. The Senate fight in Georgia is one of several races that could determine which party controls the Senate after the elections.
