Ben Carson: Ted Cruz’s response to ‘dirty trick’ is like Hillary Clinton after Benghazi
Source: Washington Post
Ben Carson continued to question the ethics of Sen. Ted Cruz's victory in the Iowa caucuses, accusing the Texas Republican of brushing aside actions his campaign took on election night, including leaving voicemails to precinct captains stating Carson was taking a "leave of absence" from the campaign trail.
Cruz's campaign sent an email Monday night that seemed to suggest, incorrectly, that Carson was dropping out of the race after the neurosurgeon told CNN he planned to go home after the caucuses to get a change of clothes rather than go directly to the next voting state. Cruz's campaign also called precinct captains and left messages asking them to tell Carson voters to caucus for Cruz, according to a person who got one.
The voicemails "said that they had heard that Carson was suspending his campaign and to announce that so that the voters could make a decision and maybe encourage them to vote for Cruz," Cruz precinct captain Nancy Bliseman of Denison, Iowa, said in an interview. She didn't get the messages until after the caucus was over and didn't relay the information, she said. She said she got two voicemails - one a little after 7 p.m., when the caucuses began, and another around 7:30 p.m.
Carson, speaking on Todd Starnes's Fox podcast Friday, compared Cruz's actions to Hillary Clinton's after the Benghazi attacks.
