VP candidate Stacey Abrams defends Joe Biden over sexual assault accusation
'I think he's telling the truth and that this did not happen'




A top Democratic vice presidential candidate defended Joe Biden against allegations he sexually assaulted an aide in the early 1990s, as more evidence supporting the claim emerged.

Stacey Abrams, a former Georgia gubernatorial candidate, told CNN's Don Lemon on Tuesday that women deserve to be heard and listened to, "but".

"I also believe that those allegations have to be investigated by credible sources," she said during the episode of CNN Tonight.

"I think that he's telling the truth and that this did not happen."

Former Democratic Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams said she believes the denial issued by former Vice President Joe Biden's campaign regarding Tara Reade's allegation of sexual assault in 1993.




Ms Abrams is part of a growing number of Democrats either defending the ex-VP against the allegations or ignoring them, including Hillary Clinton and Elizabeth Warren who both endorsed Mr Biden this week with no reference to the incident.










Democrats Will Have To Answer Questions About Tara Reade. The Biden Campaign Is Advising Them To Say Her Story “Did Not Happen.”
Joe Biden has yet to personally address Tara Reade’s sexual assault allegation, but his campaign has circulated talking points.


While Joe Biden has remained publicly silent about a sexual assault allegation made against him, his presidential campaign has sought to coordinate and unify Democratic messaging on the matter, advising surrogates earlier this month to say that the allegation “did not happen.”



The Biden campaign circulated talking points among top Democratic supporters shortly after the New York Times published a story earlier this month about the allegation by Tara Reade, a former staff assistant in Biden’s Senate office who says he assaulted her in 1993.


The talking points obtained by BuzzFeed News are printed below:

The New York Times did weeks of extensive investigative research, talking to nearly two dozen former Biden staff from the 1990s, including those who worked directly with Ms. Reade. Here is what they found: “No other allegation about sexual assault surfaced in the course of reporting, nor did any former Biden staff members corroborate any details of Ms. Reade’s allegation. The Times found no pattern of sexual misconduct by Mr. Biden.”



● All four of the people Mrs. Reade says were notified of an official complaint told the New York Times on the record that they have absolutely no recollection of any such conversation -- and that they certainly would have remembered it, especially because this alleged conduct would have been so wildly out of character for Joe Biden.


● Biden has been a fierce advocate for women, authoring and fighting to pass the Violence Against Women Act and launching a campaign to end sexual assault on college campuses. He has spent his life fighting to end abuses of power against women and using his voice to advocate for women across the country and around the world.



● Here’s the bottom line: Vice President Joe Biden has spent over 40 years in public life: 36 years in the Senate; 7 Senate campaigns, 2 previous presidential runs, two vice presidential campaigns, and 8 years in the White House. There has never been a complaint, allegation, hint or rumor of any impropriety or inappropriate conduct like this regarding him – ever.



● Biden believes that all women have the right to be heard and to have their claims thoroughly reviewed. In this case, a thorough review by the New York Times has led to the truth: this incident did not happen.
