There must be an election on the horizon. 
The PDN is publishing another in a long list of unsubstantiated allegations, aspersions, innuendo and invective against incumbent elected officials. To do so close to the election date is a typical liberal tactic employed when they have lost all debate in legitimate forums.
I’m surprised there isn’t a comment or quote from the Platypus Manchurian candidate. Maybe the PDN thinks this hit piece is enough to put him over the top, sans attribution.
