CD 6 GOP Chair Mark Swanson Edits Rep. Mark Olson's Wikipedia Page

Rep. Mark Olson's former campaign manager Mark Swanson made two revisions of the Wikipedia page I created for Rep. Mark Olson using the nom-de-wiki Swanny123.

Swanson changed the heading "Domestic Assault Arrest" to "Personal Legal Notes".

Swanson also changed "Legislative staff complained of being abused" to "It was aledged that Legislative staff complained of being abused by Mark Olson in his first term and again in 1997. There is no record of this in pertinent legislative administrative files."

Swanson also changed "Minnesota House Republicans voted to oust Olson" to "Minnesota House Republicans voted to suspend Olson".

Swanson's user page states the following:

Mark is an active Republican activist and is currently the Chair of the Republican Party of Congressional District 6.


It would appear that Swanson is trying to tamper with the facts to make Rep. Mark Olson look good in preparation for Olson's trial on June 7th for beating his wife back in November.

Swanson joins Seattle PRT promoter, David Gow in editing Olson's page.

Here's an article about Olson's abuse of staff that Swanson suggests never happened:
