| Description | Another man has come forward to say he had an inappropriate sexual encounter with the Republican Gubernatorial Candidate Nikki Haley.
Larry Marchant, a political consultant, told News19 that the two had a physical relationship which only took place once.
Marchant worked as a campaign aide for Republican Gubernatorial Candidate Andre Bauer. Bauer said he asked for and received Marchant's resignation.
Marchant said that he and Haley were together in June of 2008 while the two attended a school choice convention in Salt Lake City, Utah.
"I spent the night with Mrs. Haley," Marchant said. "We had sexual relations. We had sex. I broke the vows of my marriage."
"We had several drinks, we went to dinner, we did go to a couple of bars...you know, it just happened," he said. "It was one time, and one time only."
He says he came forward when he heard Haley deny another allegation of an inappropriate physical relationship.'
"I know she was making some very strong statements about her relationship and it bothered me," Marchanat said. "I just didn't think I could look in the mirror every day and know that I knew something and just keep it to myself."
This is the second accusation of an inappropriate relationship with the GOP frontrunner.
Last week, former Sanford staffer Will Folks said he and Haley had a relationship three years ago, something Haley has denied. |
