5. All 3 of the candidates Mya Whitaker is running against are women of color

The person who currently holds the seat is a Black woman (Desley Brooks).


The article is about male harassment on women running. Death threats for running to candidates and their families. Neo Nazis saying:

The neo-Nazi website The Daily Stormer published an article (no longer available) titled, as Ms. Weaver recalled it, “Meet the Whore Who’s Running Against Steve King,” increasing what was already an onslaught of threats.


What exactly is the point of your post!?
