There was some negative stuff out about Desjarlais a few weeks ago - about him harassing his ex-wife during nasty divorce proceedings. I didn’t see a response from Desjarlais to the attacks, but I hope he had a good explanation or the allegations about this were just muckety-muck.
There was something about DeJarlais trying to get his child-support payments lowered, and that may be what you’re referring to. He did respond to it, stating his financial situation at the time as being the reason for that.
He’s not the first man to attempt to have child-support payments lowered and if that’s the worst they can come up with against him, it isn’t enough to make me not want to vote for him.
So far, he’s running a clean campaign, sticking to the issues. That says something about his integrity. I hope he’s able to continue and doesn’t feel the need to stoop to dirty politics.
