In recent comments, Republican candidate for U.S. Senate Eric Hovde stated that while he supports the overturning of Roe v. Wade and believes in the “beauty of life,” he also believes allowing abortion to remain legal in the first trimester is the most reasonable thing to do. “I believe in the beauty of life,” said Hovde. “I have two daughters, three grandchildren, but I also believe in exceptions for rape, incest and the health of the mother. And I think early on in a woman’s pregnancy, she should have a right to choose. If you look at most of Western Europe, they resolved this decades ago. I think Germany said 12 weeks, France at 14 weeks, almost all of Western Europe allows a woman the right to choose in the first trimester.” Like Hovde, most Americans want abortion restricted significantly, while allowing it in the first trimester. But popular opinion in Europe or the United States “resolving” that it’s acceptable to kill smaller, weaker human beings up to a certain point doesn’t magically make those humans unworthy of life. Preborn children are living, growing human beings at all stages of pregnancy from the moment of fertilization, and all human lives deserve to be protected, including preborn children in the first trimester.

Filthy rich Republicans wish to tax poor people more so that the rich can get even more tax brakes when the GOP is in power. That's pretty much the story of Eric Hovde.
Hovde is running against incumbent Wisconsin US Senator Tammy Baldwin.
Wisconsin is a fairly moderate state. But it features some of the most despicable Republicans outside the old Confederacy.
In 2017, Sunwest Bank CEO Eric Hovde advocated for reforms that would raise taxes for 72 million Americans, including retirees and low-income earners. Hovde, a Republican, is expected to announce a U.S. Senate campaign in Wisconsin soon. Hovde, who has been endorsed by national Republicans to challenge Democratic Sen. Tammy Baldwin in 2024, made the proposal in a Nov. 18, 2017, appearance on the radio program “The Vicki McKenna Show.” [ ... ] Analysis by the nonpartisan Tax Policy Center found the plan would have also raised taxes for middle- and working-class families as well as retirees. “More than 80 percent of the tax increase would be paid by households making about $54,000 or less, and 97 percent would be paid by those making less than about $100,000,” wrote Howard Gleckman, a senior fellow with the organization. “Low-income families with children would pay the most: Achieving Scott’s goal would slash their after-tax incomes by more than $5,000, or more than 20 percent. A Scott-like plan would raise taxes on middle-income households by an average of $450.” Scott’s plan failed to pass, but he has not given up pushing for it. If Hovde were to join him in the Senate and support the measure, it could gain traction. In Wisconsin, Scott’s plan would have raised taxes for 32% of people, according to analysis by the nonpartisan Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy.
Hovde wants to take away your healthcare in addition to raising your income tax (if you're not a millionaire).
Hovde ran unsuccessfully in the Republican primary for U.S. Senate in 2012, and during that campaign he called for a total repeal of the Affordable Care Act, which in 2022 made it possible for 212,209 individuals in Wisconsin to obtain affordable health insurance coverage.
The Eric Hovde and Donald Trump Agenda: Take Away Critical Health Care Protections From Wisconsinites
Hovde doesn't even live in Wisconsin. Just sayin'...
Bice: Eric Hovde may run for Senate in Wisconsin, but he's living large in Laguna Beach, California
Did I mention that Eric Hovde is an anti-abortion fanatic.

Wisconsin Republican Eric Hovde concedes defeat to Democrat Tammy Baldwin in US Senate race
Hovde, in his concession video, repeated claims he first made last week, saying there were “many troubling issues” related to absentee ballots in Milwaukee and when they were reported.
MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Wisconsin Republican Eric Hovde conceded defeat on Monday to Democratic incumbent Tammy Baldwin in their U.S. Senate race, saying he did not want to “add to political strife through a contentious recount” even though he raised debunked election conspiracies. Hovde, who was backed by President-elect Donald Trump, could have requested a recount because his margin of defeat was…

Democrat(ic) plant defeats Hovde
Siphons off just enough votes! We’ve said before Democrats fight dirty. But, like the late and unlamented Senate majority leader Harry Reid* crowed after being caught in one scam, “We won, didn’t we?” * ( * “Harry Reid’s appalling defense of his attack on Mitt Romney” — Washington Post.) Running as a third-party candidate, a Democrat(ic) plant named Thomas Leager siphoned off just enough votes…

US Senate race
In Wisconsin there is a senate race going out. Tammy Baldwin is the democrat and is up for reelection. she has been serving since 2012 for this great state and has done good for the state and the whole country! Her opponent is a millionaire named Eric Hovde from California who has no real ties to Wisconsin! He is a Trumpster, wants to band abortion nationwide, cut Medicare and Social Security, plus get rid of Obama care! With Wisconsin he has said farmers are lazy and only drive around all day on tractors! The more you weigh, the more health insurance you will have to pay and has said senior citizens would not be allowed to vote who live in nursing homes! Hovde has no plans to help Wisconsin if elected to the senate! He is clueless, stupid and spends most of his time on the beach in front of his house! Tammy has been traveling around the state in a bus visiting cities, towns and talking to people and followers getting the word out! Not to mention she has been supporting Kamala Harris and Tim Walz, too! While Hovde sits on the beach and has hardly toured Wisconsin to talk to voters! He trashes Tammy along with money from Mitch McConnell's republican pack in commercials I see and hear on the radio! All lies! nothing but lies! Tammy can win her seat! She is fighting and working hard for Wisconsin! That is why I voted for her, not that lazy SOB who doesn't care about us!

El senador Baldwin de Wisconsin cambia repentinamente de opinión sobre los votantes de Trump
El senador de extrema izquierda de Wisconsin no quiere tener nada que ver con el presidente Joe La charla basura de Biden sobre los partidarios de Trump. Quizás una candidatura a la reelección reñida en un estado en disputa tenga algo que ver con el distanciamiento de la senadora Tammy Baldwin de los comentarios incendiarios del presidente políticamente moribundo. Biden hizo comentarios…

From the April 29, 2024 explainer:
That is a question that several Republican Senate candidates are facing this year. It seems like the GOP’s strategy, initially spearheaded by Sen. McConnell (R-KY), is to parachute in random millionaires with loose ties to battleground states, take pictures of them doing local sports and eating state-specific foods, and hope that no one notices that these people aren’t from there.
The four are:
Bank owner Eric Hovde--Laguna Beach, California, but running in Wisconsin
Hedge fund owner Dave McCormick--Connecticut, but running in Pennsylvania
Aerospace CEO Tim Sheehy--Minnesota, but cosplays as a Montana rancher
Mike Rogers--Cape Coral, Florida, but not even registered to vote in Michigan where he is running
The GOP!
"Rule's are for suckers"!

The Associated Press declared Baldwin the winner at 12:42 p.m. CDT

She defeated Republican millionaire businessman Eric Hovde, who was making his second run for Senate, having previously lost in the 2012 Republican primary. Baldwin argued that Hovde was disconnected…

Blaska's ballot looks like this:
Garbage in, garbage out! Unlike The Washington Post — or Amazon.com for that matter — Blaska Policy Werkes endorses candidates. In many cases, we help the candidates we support by endorsing their opponents. The old switcheroo, as KC Chiefs Coach Andy Reid might say. Donald Segretti would be proud. Donald Trump riding a garbage truck in Green Bay WI in response to the Uncle Joe Biden’s latest…
