The statement raised questions over the about-face by Fazli. As recently as two weeks ago, Fazli called the advertisements “accurate” and said Cisneros and the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee “refused to take me seriously in May and this is a price they will pay.” Last week, Fazli emailed Cisneros’ opponent, saying “I would rather have a Republican Woman win than a creep like Gil.” Fazli said she sent the email out of frustration over Cisneros’ failure to respond but no longer feels that way after airing her concerns with Cisneros.
