Kelly Ayotte Calls Her Opponent an 'Opioid Lobbyist.' She Vouched for the 'Character' of Purdue Pharma's Lawyer, Who Just Quit the Supreme Court Over Ethics Violations.

Governor Kelly Ayotte has built her reelection campaign around her opponent's old work for Purdue Pharma.

This week he resigned after admitting he broke the judicial ethics rules.
