The hour-long interview contained footage where she showed concern about changing existing marriage laws and discussed where marriage laws might go if changed. “This doesn’t just have roots in the Bible. This has roots in fiscal common sense. We can’t, at this point, afford to just be handing out money to anyone. This is a slippery slope in addition to that — at what point are we going to okay marrying inanimate objects? Can I marry this table, or this — you know, clock? Can we marry dogs? This is ridiculous. Biblically, again I’m going to go right back to my fundamental Christian beliefs, marriage is between one man and one woman.” The story became national news after it was discovered that Kleefisch’s uncle Chris Pfauser has been in an openly gay relationship for 18 years, and Pfauser said after hearing the comments that he would vote for his niece’s opponent.
