DescriptionRepublicans in Oregon's newly drawn 6th Congressional District last week chose as their nominee for the House businessman Mike Erickson, an anti-abortion candidate who has been accused of paying for an ex-girlfriend's abortion.

"In 2000 (or) 2001, a very close friend of mine had dated Mike. During this time she became pregnant with his child. Mike drove my friend to a (Northeast) Portland abortion clinic, on the way he stopped by an ATM withdrawing $300 for her procedure and dropped her off across the street from the clinic," the woman later told the Oregonian. "In tears, she walked across the street and into the clinic alone. I left work early, met her at the clinic and held her hand through the entire procedure."
