Obsitnik Calls for Akin to Get Out of Race

Statement

Date: Sept. 6, 2012
Location: Norwalk, CT

Today, Steve Obsitnik, candidate for United States Congress in Connecticut's 4th district, called on Rep. Todd Akin of Missouri to withdraw from that state's U.S. Senate race.

"Rep. Akin's remarks concerning the 'legitimacy' of rape are outrageous and intolerable," said Steve Obsitnik. "His beliefs are an affront to victims, and all women, and do not reflect the views of the party I'm running to represent. He should withdraw from the Missouri Senate race immediately."
