Democrat Katie Hill Admits Affair with Campaign Staffer, Apologizes

Her admission seemed to contradict her denial the day before of an affair with a male member of her congressional staff, though the admission Wednesday may concern a different, female staffer who worked on her campaign but not in her Capitol Hill office.
