There is no shame in not having a college degree – there are many paths to success in life. So it’s baffling that Brad Toft would feel compelled to claim he has college degrees he does not. These fabrications appeared on both his campaign website and on a press release sent directly from his email address.

The Associated Press verified: Mr. Toft has no degree of any kind.

Claiming to have done work that you did not do is also an insult to those who have spent the time and energy becoming accredited in a field or trade. People like my husband, Mark Mullet, who graduated summa cum laude with his undergraduate degree and balanced work/family life while earning his masters.

If one is willing to lie so boldly, and publicly, about important and easily authenticated biographical information, what would they do if in elected office?
