Kavanaugh Accuser Taps Democratic Operative

September 20, 2018 · 3:41 pm ET · Leave a Comment

“Christine Blasey Ford, the woman who has accused Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexually assaulting her when they were both teenagers, is being advised by Democratic operative Ricki Seidman,” Politico reports.

“Seidman worked as Joe Biden’s communications director during the 2008 general election campaign, after he was named Barack Obama’s running mate. In 2009, she helped the White House manage the confirmation of Obama’s Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor.”
