Radio and television station KPBS obtained a letter to Filner from former Councilwoman Donna Frye that said she recently received "credible evidence" that the mayor harassed more than one woman. She asked that the City Council schedule a special election to replace him.
Frye, a fellow Democrat who once came within a whisker of being elected mayor in a write-in campaign, is highly regarded among Filner's liberal base and served as the mayor's director of open government for several months until resigning for a position at Californians Aware, a group that advocates for open government.
"Those who have spoken to me recently would not make the allegations lightly or without cause, and I believe them," Frye wrote. "I cannot in good conscience remain silent on this, even if those who have spoken to me choose to do so out of fear of retribution or the possibility of a media circus where they could be twice victimized." http://www.sfgate.com/news/article/San-Diego-mayor-accused-of-sexual-harassment-4658351.php
Sounds like a cat fight between a liberal mayor wannabe and the mayor who apparently is a sexual harasser.
You do have to give props to the mayor who is 70 years old- apparently trying to be like Hugh Hefner, another old geezer sexual harasser.
Of course, there is no evidence presented in the article about the supposed sexual harassment, but when it comes to liberals, you don't evidence to make charges like this.
It will be interesting to see how this plays out.
