Rachel Crooks, who accused Trump of kissing her without her consent at Trump Tower in 2006, won the Democratic nomination for a seat in the Ohio state legislature Tuesday night.
Crooks, who ran unopposed, previously said that Trump’s vehement denial of her accusation pushed her to throw her hat into the ring.
“It’s liars like you in politics that have prompted me to run for office myself,” she tweeted in February.
Crooks will face Ohio state Rep. Bill Reineke (R) in November.
Too bad she didn’t run for Congress.
Trump may end up doing more than anyone else ever could in gender-balancing our politics. His own worst nightmare!
Good for her. I read a decent article about her back in Feb https://www.seattletimes.com/nation-world/trump-accuser-keeps-telling-her-story-hoping-someone-will-finally-listen/
and she seemed a stand-up gal, despite some of the locals calling her a liar and ugly. Seems like an uphill battle in the general, but deemed a “pivot” county since voted for Trump and Obama twice. Good luck to her.
Run, Rachel, run!
It’s got to start somewhere…
