Florida School Board Urges Bridget Ziegler's Resignation Amidst Husband's Sex Assault Probe

The Sarasota County School Board in Florida has voted to recommend the resignation of member Bridget Ziegler, who is involved in a sexual assault investigation into her husband, Christian Ziegler, the state GOP chairman. The board cannot directly remove her, but the resolution requesting her resignation was passed 4-1. Bridget Ziegler, who is also a co-founder of the conservative parents group Moms for Liberty, voted against the resolution and has not indicated that she will step down. The allegations involve a three-way sexual encounter and rape accusations made by a woman against Christian Ziegler. The investigation is ongoing, and Christian Ziegler maintains his innocence.
