Herschel Walker, the GOP Senate nominee in Georgia, said Monday that he plans to sue a news website after it reported he paid a woman to have an abortion in 2009.
Mr. Walker said a story the Daily Beast posted Monday is a “flat-out lie” and said, “I deny this in the strongest possible terms.”

Mr. Walker is running as a staunchly pro-life Republican in a tight race with Sen.
