APNewsBreak: Attorney: Ellison abuse claim unsubstantiated
Source: AP News
ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) — An ex-girlfriend’s allegation that Minnesota Rep. Keith Ellison once physically abused her could not be substantiated because she refused to provide video she said she had of the incident, an attorney hired to investigate the claims concluded in a draft report obtained Monday by The Associated Press.
The report was compiled by Susan Ellingstad, a lawyer hired by Minnesota’s Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party to investigate the allegation against the Democratic congressman. Ellison, also deputy chairman of the Democratic National Committee, has denied the allegations.
Karen Monahan alleged in August that Ellison dragged her off a bed by her feet while screaming obscenities at her in 2016. Monahan said she had video footage of the incident. She levied the allegation just days ahead of a crowded Democratic primary for Minnesota attorney general that Ellison went on to win.
The state’s Democratic party launched an investigation into the claim. Democratic party chairman Ken Martin said last week he expected the investigation to conclude soon.

When a democrat is accused, video proof is required.
I'm sure that the state’s Democratic party is running an unbiased investigation.

4. Where is the evidence against Ellison?
He said she said won't stand up in any court of law. I have a friend who was being abused by her husband, but without evidence she was powerless. Then one day he threw a metal object at her in a rage. She called police and now has solid evidence to get a divorce on favorable terms.
There's a heck of a lot more evidence against Ellison than there is against Kavanaugh.
An election isn't a court of law, more like a job interview.
Where is Christine Blasey Ford's videotape of Kavanaugh? Without one, her claims cannot be substantiated
