•Republican Dan Maes hopes to earn $500,000 today, according to a campaign email:

“Today is a critically important day to all Americans because it is the anniversary of the signing of our Constitution on September 17th, 1787. It is also a critical day for our campaign. If you haven’t seen the email series from AJ Reagan on how we are going to make history today then let me just say that this is the day we are going to raise $500,000.00 thru small and medium donations to show the establishment and the Colorado voter that we have the support needed to win.”

•According to a former detective from Liberal, Kansas and one of the targets of the gambling ring, Maes’ depiction of his role in the story is questionable. Maes denies the characterizations, but has been slow in forthcoming with his personnel files, which only he can request under Kansas law. Maes’ sometimes contradictory story of police work in the 1980s drew heavy criticism and set off a cascade of top Republican defections earlier.
