Democrat in Alabama uses Facebook to imply GOP congressional opponent is gay [View all]

Boman has not reported any campaign contributions with the Federal Elections Commission. That compares to $1.2 million raised by U.S. Rep. Robert Aderholt, R-Haleyville, as of the end of last month.

Boman, an attorney, is the Democratic nominee seeking to unseat Aderholt, an eight-term incumbent. On Oct. 14, Boman posted the following question to his Facebook page:


"Who would you vote for on November 6, 2012 between the following two candidates:


1) A republican who is a homosexual who has a voting record of voting AGAINST ALL homosexual legislation. Further, this particular homosexual congressman has ALL homosexuals working on his congressional staff


OR


2) A democrat who is a straight male, but has no voting record for or against homosexual legislation."
