"  One mayoral candidate in the November elections won&amp;#039;t be campaigning at his local Starbucks. According to Q13FOX, Todd Best, who is running for office in Kitsap County&amp;#039;s largest city, Bremerton, Washington, has been banned from Starbucks for life. After being asked by his opponent why he never goes to Starbucks, Best revealed during an online radio debate on Outlaw Radio Network that he had a disagreement with a Starbucks staffer after the employee allegedly tossed his cellphone and papers in the trash. The employee claimed they thought Best had left for the day. The two had a verbal exchange, which resulted in the employee banning Best from the Siverdale Way Starbucks.

But Q13FOX reports that official documents state Best made some &amp;quot;sexual comments.&amp;quot; Best&amp;#039;s lawyer claims that never happened, and that Best was &amp;quot;understandably upset&amp;quot; after the employee threw his items in the garbage. More From Delish: Starbucks Bans Smoking Outside of Stores There is one employee in Best&amp;#039;s corner, who even provided a written statement backing up Best&amp;#039;s account of the altercation. However, Starbucks sided with the staffer and has banned Best from all Starbucks across the country. In their official statement, Starbucks said Best behaved inappropriately with the employees and claimed &amp;quot;repeated inappropriate conversation with store partners.&amp;quot; Starbucks believes Best created an &amp;quot;unsafe workplace for Starbucks&amp;#039; employees.&amp;quot; Best has never returned to the Silverdale Starbucks and hopes to leave it all in the past. Do you believe Best&amp;#039;s story or are you on Starbucks&amp;#039; side? In light of the incident, if he were running for mayor in your town, would you vote for Best?
