Denver – Karen Middleton, Executive Director of NARAL Pro-Choice Colorado, today issued the following statement about Rep. Mike Coffman’s response that he “doesn’t know” if Donald Trump is a sexual predator during the 9News debate Thursday night:
“Mike Coffman said he doesn’t know if Donald Trump is a sexual predator. Colorado women do. Grabbing a woman’s body without her consent is the definition of sexual assault. This is not difficult.
As the Aurora Sentinel put it in their editorial today, “What Trump did was perverse and criminal. It legally constitutes sexual assault, and it’s morally repulsive.”
…He can’t have it both ways on this issue. Trump’s blatant misogyny and admitted sexual assaults are not debatable political philosophies”
The fact that Mike Coffman seems unclear on this point could explain why he voted to redefine rape. We believe a woman has a right to control to her own body. Mike Coffman’s anti-choice record demonstrates he does not.
This is just one more reason why we support Senator Morgan Carroll for Congress. She is a pro-choice champion with NARAL Pro-Choice Colorado, has a 100% rating on our 2016 Legislative Scorecard, and has been endorsed by NARAL Pro-Choice America. We know that Colorado women deserve someone who will take the time to listen to them, believe them, and take action. Morgan Carroll will stand with the women of CD6. She would never say “I don’t know” about sexual assault for political expedience.”

The razor's edge is very thin, much thinner than a fence. Coffman is experiencing the knife edge much more than a 2X4. And he cannot be on both sides without a serious wedgie.
For a man who is not going to support Trump, he is having issues breaking away on many important issues.
Morgan will be the winner of the election and the people of CD6 will be winners because they will have representation of their desires and not the dictates of the Koch bros.
