Sen. Boxer Quits ‘Flawed’ Political System
by Scott Ott
(2005-01-06) – Just minutes after failing to halt the certification of President Bush’s electoral victory, Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-CA, announced her resignation from the Senate today, saying she is “wracked with doubt” about the precise margin of her own victory in November.
While the official vote count showed that Mrs. Boxer trounced Republican Bill Jones by nearly 2.4 million votes, she said today that if even one voter was disenfranchised in California, then her “election is tainted and American troops in Iraq are dying in vain.”
“I feel dirty,” she said at a hastily-called news conference. “I’m leaving the senate so I can sleep at night and face myself in the mirror. If I stayed, I would be no better than George W. Bush.”
Former Sen. Boxer encouraged her Democrat colleagues to “follow my principled leadership and abandon your ill-gotten seats of power.”
President George Bush, when told of the resignation, said, “Sen. Boxer has fought for years to make America better. Today, she has won that fight, and deserves the gratitude of all Americans.”
