Chuck Hurley, Iowa’s Anti-Gay LOSER

Last week I quoted Iowa Family Policy council head Chuck Hurley who said “blah blah something blah evil gays blah eternal hellfire blah God’s gentle love.” Etc. Today Hurley is burning in that special lake of shame reserved for politicians who get completely creamed at the polls. From One Iowa via press release:

Pro-equality legislator Ako Abdul-Samad scored a decisive victory in tonight’s House District 66 Democratic primary. Clair Rudison, with the full force of the Iowa Family Policy Center behind him, won only 25% of the vote compared to 74% for Abdul-Samad. Voters rejected the negative and divisive tactics he and the Iowa Family Policy Center used to try to smear his opponent. “We congratulate Rep. Ako Abdul-Samad on his decisive victory and welcome his continued leadership at the statehouse,” said Jenison.

Hurley had vowed to make the election about one thing: gay marriage. As it turns out, Iowa’s voters only care about the stuff that actually affects their lives. Sad trombone for Chuckie!
