Love Says Democrats Attack Because She Is Black

Rep. Mia Love (R-UT) has a theory for why Democrats are targeting her seat — and it’s not because her Democratic opponent, Salt Lake County Mayor Ben McAdams (D), has pulled within single digits in numerous polls, Roll Call reports.

It’s because, she is black, Republican, and successful.

Said Love: “They do not like the fact that I am a black female Republican doing everything I possibly can to talk about the issues that help people go from the lowest common denominator up.”
