Biden accuser Lucy Flores says she'd vote for him over Trump: 'That's not even a question'

The Hill

The former Nevada legislator who accused former vice president and potential Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden of inappropriately touching her at a 2014 campaign rally said she'd still support him if he were matched up against President Trump.

"That's not even a question," Lucy Flores, a former Nevada state assemblywoman who unsuccessfully ran for lieutenant governor in 2014, told CBS News. "Of course I would support Biden."

But Flores added that she believes Biden's actions should disqualify him from seeking the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination.

Flores, who supported Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) in 2016, also said that Biden's previous "anti-abortion" stances are reasons why he shouldn't run.
