Amanda Kirchgessner, a progressive Democratic candidate contending for a seat in the New York State Senate representing the 58th District, has been accused of several instances of domestic violence and abuse during their marriage.
Kirchgessners ex-wife, Brandi Morgan, has told the Ithaca Times that Kirchgessner participated in a pattern of abusive behavior during the latter years of their marriage, which officially ended in 2016. The allegations include grabbing, pushing, throwing objects, verbal abuse, intimidation and possible threats against Morgan and their pets....
Morgan has chosen to come forward and gave the Ithaca Times permission to use her name despite her status as a survivor of domestic violence. She presented evidence of the abuse through tape recordings, pictures, a police report and blog posts from the time period. People familiar with the couple at the time have also independently corroborated to the Ithaca Times what Morgan told them throughout the later course of the marriage about Kirchgessners conduct.

Silly Freeper - of course they will stand with the D Rat.
Sounds like the accuser has a good bit of evidence.
they’ll call for an investigation which will last beyond the election, and support her “until the facts” come out. Watch.
I am sooo confused. We are DEMANDED by leftists to believe the woman in all cases. So, who am I supposed to believe here?
#HimToo?
(D)?....no problem, it’s all good..................
If this abuse occurred thirty six years ago with sketchy evidence then I say Kirchgessner would be in trouble. Since the abuse happened recently and the victim has provided plenty of physical evidence including tape recordings, pictures and a police report it means Kirchgessner will walk. Its how the RATS roll in 2018. Just ask Keith Ellison!
Was it an argument about the woodworking project in their living room?
Surprised they named his party affiliation in the lede. They usually reveal it halfway into the story.
HER party affiliation ....
Kirchgessners ex-wife, Brandi Morgan
DID SHE THROW ICE ?
Let me guess, his Poll Numbers immediately went up by 5 points after the News came out.
The couple in question are both women.
What, you expect me to read the Article?
This is FR after all. #;^)
According to Gillibrand, just the accusation is proof of guilt.
Believe Brandi Morgan!
