Fiorina defends citing nonexistent abortion video
Fact-Checking Carly Fiorinas Debate Statements on Planned Parenthood
The POLITICO Wrongometer
FactChecking the CNN Republican Debate
RUNNERS UP, from FactCheck.org:
Donald Trump told a story linking vaccination to autism, but there's no evidence that recommended vaccines cause autism.
Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee said that Hillary Clinton was "under investigation by the FBI" because she "destroyed government records." Not true. She had the authority to delete personal emails.
Trump said that "illegal immigration" cost "more than $200 billion a year." We couldn't find any support for that. Actually, it could cost taxpayers $137 billion or more to deport the 11 million immigrants in the country illegally, as Trump proposes.
Trump again wrongly said that Mexico doesn't have a birthright citizenship policy like the United States. It does.
Florida Sen. Marco Rubio said that U.S. policies to combat climate change would do absolutely nothing. The U.S. acting alone would have a small effect on rising temperatures and sea levels, and experts say U.S. leadership on the issue would prompt other nations to act.

Jeb Bush said, "You know what? As it relates to my brother, there's one thing I know for sure. He kept us safe."
