Ass-grabbing in social situations a few years ago, and as a law student repeatedly rubbing his boner against women's thighs, all without consent. Boulton admitted to the former and didn't completely deny the latter, but apologizes and says he changed.

Not a fatal shot like Parnell, but it definitely will only increase Hubbell’e advantage

Who else has a chance here? Is it just Hubbell, or are there any dark horse candidates I'm unaware of?

I disagree with everyone else here, I think Boulton's dead in the water at this point. How do y'all think some creep who rubbed his boner against women is going to get through a Democratic primary in the year 2018? It's not like he's an incumbent or something.

Yeah. There really isn't a choice between Hubbell and Glasson IMO. Hopefully we'll see some of the local labor switching their endorsements pretty quickly.

Realistically though I suspect this means Hubbell has it wrapped up (ie - gains enough of a plurality to hold off a convention). I'd be more than happy to be surprised though.

I feel like nominating union candidates is the left's answer to the GOP recruiting billionare businessmen as outsider candidates.

Union candidates enjoy organizational advantages which translate better to campaigns that money-bombers don’t, but yes, it’s sort of similar.

Anyways - I’m unpersuaded by Glassin’s campaign so far. This mostly just wraps it up for Hubbell.

Boulton needs to either drop out or register as Republican and run in the GOP primary (where that type of behavior is accepted)

This is why we need to ban men from serving in public office. Enough is Enough!

I think folks in the past have really underestimated the number of politicians and number of rich people in general that do this sh**t without getting noticed.

Shame. I liked Boulton and thought he had a really good shot at beating Reynolds.
