Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley's comments on abortion during the third Republican National Committee debate in Miami didn't just resonate with GOP voters and commentators. It may have proven a way forward on an issue that has continually hampered Republican electoral success since Roe v. Wade was overturned in June 2022.
While Haley's abortion stance could put off evangelical voters in Iowa, New Hampshire voters may be more amendable to her pragmatic approach. Yet some of her competitors, such as Sen. Tim Scott , have challenged her to endorse a 15-week abortion ban during the debate, to which Haley retorted,"I would support anything that would pass because that's what would save more babies and support more moms."
Mary Ziegler, a law professor who studies the politics of reproduction at the University of California, Davis told the Washington Examiner that both Trump and Haley have been deliberately vague on abortion to avoid explaining what actions they would take if elected president.
