Female Democratic Congress candidate drops out of race after she was accused (tr)

A female Democrat running for Congress in Kansas is dropping out of the race after allegations of sexual assault stemming from a 2005 lawsuit resurfaced during a recent interview.

Mother-of-two Andrea Ramsey was asked by the Kansas City Star about a lawsuit regarding accusations of sexually harassing and retaliating against a male subordinate, Gary Funkhouser, who said he rejected her sexual advances in 2005.

Court Documents show that Funkhouser and LabOne, a company where Ramsey was executive vice president of human resources, agreed to dismiss the case after mediation in 2006, according to the Star.

Ramsey, from Leawood, Kansas, was one of a number of Democrats planning to challenge Republican Representative Kevin Yoder in the 2018 race in Kansas' Third District.

The 56-year-old had received an endorsement from the left-wing women's group Emily's List, which has raised more than $500,000 for female candidates supporting abortion rights across the country.

But now Ramsey's campaign says she will announce that she is dropping out on Friday.

Full title: Female Democratic Congress candidate drops out of race after she was accused of sexual harassment by a male colleague who 'rejected her advances' - but she insists he was a 'vindictive' employee

In the interest of promoting equality between the genders we should publicize more female sexual harassment and stop giving out lenient sentences to females who commit statuatory rape.

As my wife says, women get horny too ya know?!

I was waiting for this shoe to drop. Next is the gay and lesbian harassment assault flank of the "who's been in your panties" police.

Just being around Sen. Tim Kaine (D-VA) is a form of sexual torture, not just harassment. It’s enough to make one a monk, nun, or eunuch.
