SIOUX FALLS, SOUTH DAKOTA, May 29, 2012, (LifeSiteNews.com) – A PR hand for Planned Parenthood, who is running as a Democratic candidate for state legislature, has been cited for DUI and Careless Driving after police say she collided with a seven-year-old girl who was riding her bike through a crosswalk.

Carmen Toft, 32, is the South Dakota Public Affairs Manager at Planned Parenthood Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota (PPMNNDSD). She is also running for the Democratic nomination in the state House of Representatives in District 10.

The accident occurred last Tuesday at the corner of Eighth Street and North Chicago Avenue in Sioux Falls.

Involved in killing babies, why not be involved in running over children when drunk.

Sounds like a Democratic candidate with faults some Democrats will overlook because she involved with Planned Parenthood and will support abortion.

Sioux Falls Police spokesman Sam Clemens said Toft refused to take a breathalyzer test on the spot, telling police the girl “came out of nowhere.”

Could it be driving drunk impaired her ability to stop in time?

Toft has actively campaigned against state pro-life measures since at least 2006, according to local media. On her Twitter feed, she also endorsed “marriage equality.”

In her defense, (1) the girl didn’t die, which is a better outcome than for almost any unborn child she runs across, and (2) in any case there is no moral difference between killing an unborn baby girl and running over a little girl.

For a Democrat, the little girl was in a crosswalk, so that means the little girl was fair game...

The woman needs to paint pictures of children and bicycles on her car to to keep a running count of those she has run over...

Sioux Falls police confirmed Tuesday that Carmen Toft, a 32-year-old Planned Parenthood employee on the ballot for a District 10 House seat, was cited May 22 after the collision at Eighth Street and North Chicago Avenue.

South Dakota Democratic Party Chairman Ben Nesselhuf said late in the day that Toft had decided to withdraw from the race before the arrest, however.
