Gay Republican congressional candidate accused of sexual harasssment

Main Points:
• Carl DeMaio has won national name recognition as a "new generation Republican."
• Todd Bosnich is a former campaign staffer accusing DeMaio of sexual harassment. 
• DeMaio says Bosnich's version of events is a cover story for a suspected criminal.
• DeMaio is challenging Rep. Scott Peters, a vulnerable first-term Democrat. 

Opinion:
My opinion is that Carl DeMaio should no longer be able to run. This is not the first time he has been accused of sexual harassment. There has been multiple people making this claim in the past, it's clearly a big issue that needs to be resolved by people of higher authority. 

 Connection:
This connects to the three branches because we vote for who represents is as states. If a man running for a position has been repeatedly accused for sexual harassment why would we even want him to be able to run? Is that who we want to represent us? 

Questions:
1. What do you think they should do about the accusations against DeMaio? 
2. Do you believe there is enough evidence to prove DeMaio guilty? 
3. How trustworthy do you believe Bosnich is considering he is under investigation by the San Diego Police Department for breaking into DeMaio"a campaign headquarters, smashing computers, and cutting phone lines just days before the primary?
