FL Republican candidate lied about college degree

https://www.newsweek.com/florida-gop...y-says-1069824


Another example of a Republican who thinks she can lie and cheat her way through life. She did attend the school, but "failed" to graduate. Not to mention they didn't even offer the course she claims she got a degree in...

Why is it pretty much the rule that Republicans lie about everything? Why do they think they wont get caught? Is it because they are so used to lying to their echo chamber friends and family that they think they can lie to to everyone else?




An Ohio University claims a Republican candidate lied about graduating from their school and faked her college marketing diploma.

In her campaign website bio, Melissa Howard—a 46-year-old Florida business owner who is running for the Republican primary in the Florida House of Representatives' 73rd District—said she was born in a blue collar town in “Middle America” and was the “first in her family to attend college.”

FLA News Online first reported that Howard lied to her supporters about earning a college degree, however, later corrected their story after the candidate posted a photo of herself smiling next to her diploma and claimed she flew back to Ohio to prove the report wrong.

But following the incident, Miami University’s General Counsel Robin Parker confirmed the news sites original scoop that the degree was fake.

In an email statement, the university revealed that Howard’s account of when she supposedly graduated, what major she studied and what degree she held did not match theirs.

Howard claims that she graduated in 1996 from Miami University in Ohio with a Bachelor of Science degree in Marketing, however, Parker said they did not offer that specific degree and confirmed she did attend between 1990 and 1994 but failed to graduate..
