Letter to the Editor: My Husband, Mark Mullet, Has Never Given Anyone Reason to Doubt His Word

Sabath Mullet writes that she believes her husband's track record shows he is the superior candidate for the 5th District Senate seat.

Dear Editor,

Question: What do these quotes have in common? 

  1. “[Attn. Honorable Judge Nault] …the specific identity of the defendant is unclear…I, to the best of my understanding, have never known or come into contact with the plaintiff, but share a name with the defendant…”
  2. “A graduate of Seattle Pacific University”;  “…holds an executive degree in finance from the University of Washington.”
  3. “I will not impugn the character of other candidates…I will publicly disavow ads from other sources that impugn the integrity of a candidate for office.”

Answer: They all belong to Brad Toft, are all publicly documented, and are all verifiable fabrications.  He is the defendant in question, he has no degree of any kind, and have you seen the attack ads about my husband, Mark Mullet?

Toft’s Response:

To #1: “I wasn’t saying it wasn’t me.”

To #2: “On our website I stated I had a ‘Program Degree’ for the UW” (Untrue)

To #3:  He hasn’t disavowed a single attack ad and impugns Mark’s character regularly.

The Tofts implore you not to believe what you hear about Brad’s sordid past.  So are the reams of court and jail records lying?  They insist his past is irrelevant.  The above fabrications were all made in the last six months – is his present irrelevant too? 

According to Toft: Mark secretly promised “party bosses” he’d help raise taxes; Mark conspired with Governor Gregoire to rig the election; Mark paid for illegal polling.  Gosh, that all sounds really damning.  Any minute now, we’ll be provided with documents, receipts, or affidavits to prove these claims…  Oh no, wait – Toft just wants us to take his word for it.

Past actions are the best indicator of future behavior.  If a person has an astonishingly dodgy track record already, how do you think they’ll behave in office? 

My husband has a past and present of which he can be exceedingly proud.  His academic, professional, and civil records are spotless.  Mark is – and always has been - forthcoming, hard working, and honorable. That’s why his endorsement list is comprised of individuals of all stripes, who work and/or speak with him regularly.  

Most importantly, Mark Mullet has never given anyone reason to doubt his word.
