Last night we told you how Wyoming Rep. Barbara Cubin (R) threatened to slap Thomas Rankin, the wheelchair-bound Libertarian candidate running against her this year. Rankin says Cubin’s comment amounted to a “a slur related to his phyiscal disability” (MS).
Now Rankin is saying Cubin should resign. âShe is not the type of person Wyoming residents want representing them.”
(ed.note: An earlier version of this post incorrectly stated that Rankin had accused Cubin of uttering a slur in addition to the slap comment. In fact, the former was Rankin’s way of referring to the latter incident. Thanks to TPM Reader TB for catching my error.)
