Democratic Rep. Keith Ellison won his bid to be Minnesota's next attorney general despite facing accusations of abuse.


With 100% of precincts reporting, Ellison captured about 49% of the vote to best his Republican rival Doug Wardlow, who raked in 45% of the vote, according to Minnesota's Secretary of State's Office.

Ellison announced in June that he would withdraw his bid for re-election to Congress and instead campaign for Minnesota's attorney general.

In August, the son of Ellison's former girlfriend Karen Monahan detailed allegations of physical abuse by the congressman in a Facebook post, saying that he discovered a video on his mother's computer in 2017 that allegedly showed Ellison attempting to drag Monahan off a bed while cursing at her.

Ellison denied the allegation and claimed that a video of the incident "does not exist because I never behaved in this way."

Days later after the allegation surfaced, Ellison clinched the Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party's nomination for Minnesota attorney general.

Ellison, who is one of two Muslims in Congress, also came under scrutiny for his past ties to the Nation of Islam and defense of its controversial leader, Louis Farrakhan, who has espoused bigotry.

Ellison publicly renounced his association with the Nation of Islam in 2006 after it became an issue during his run for Congress, when local Republican bloggers began publishing his old law school columns and photos connecting him to the organization.

"I have long since distanced myself from and rejected the Nation of Islam due to its propagation of bigoted and anti-Semitic ideas and statements, as well as other issues," Ellison wrote at the time.

Tuesday's victory positions Ellison, the deputy chairman of the Democratic National Committee, to fight President Donald Trump in court.

CNN's Andrew Kaczynski and Nathan McDermott contributed to this report.

Being accused of something doesn't make one guilty until proven.
The title of this thread is messed up and conservative right wing filth has been tolerated too long on this forum.
They are the enemy and you fight fascism with fascism not liberalism.

You are mocking the metoo movement while buying into the woman allegations without proof

Accused is a Black Republican.
Meaning he is a Conservative right wing filth - as per you.

And you claim being accused does not make one guilty.

So, is this black conservative right wing filth guilty or not?
And how do you want to fight this Black fascist?

Ron paul is also a republican. What's your point?
He is not on this forum and his views are opposite of what you call conservatives.That is why they "conservatives" are expressing their disdain for him.

No it doesn't that's what I believe!

The real question is how will you fight for rights of hindus in india? Will make multiple threads here or actually bash someone's skull in real life?

The way in America has become Guilty until proven innocent.

In some cases yes

I would rather debate and discuss than do any bashing - but that's just me.

And I agree with you that this being dragged over the coals in public is the worst thing that happened in public discourse this year.

this can't be the norm.
This shouldn't be the norm.

MeToo was supposed to be empowering but it is also being used to destroy lives and reputations.

MeToo was supposed to be empowering but it is also being used to destroy lives and reputations.

It empowers the victims and destroys the culprit. Which part of if you don't understand?

Good luck with that! You haven't come across knuckleheads who learn the hard way yet.

You are right it is used for destroying lives rather than empowerment and worse of all it's spreading globally.

except there was proof in this case. The accusers had 911 recordings of calls they made to report him, as well as records of doctors visits for severe bruises. Whereas Ford had no proof or witnesses whatsoever, and Roy Moore's accusers only had a yearbook signature.
This shows the hypocrisy of the left.

Keith Ellison is a Black Democrat who happens to be Muslim. He's not just a democrat, but he is one of the party's most liberal members and is the DNC vice-chair. He also hates Israel.

And Black conservatives do not get spared. We all know how the liberals tried to destroy Clarence Thomas in the 90s. And just look at how the media is treating Kanye West.

I fucking hate American Politics its a fucking puppet show run by J...ws and Zionist ball lickers but if there is one of two parties I hate now is the Democratic Party and Keith Ellison is just a dumb n....ger politician sorry to offend anyone but he rarely knows what he is talking about and he supports F....gots and practical liberal position even a moderate Muslim would balk at.As for Roy Moore race last year that was nasty mudslinging
