Maes campaign faces more fines

The Maes campaign faces another $1,100 in fines for two separate violations last month: a $300 fine for filing a large-donor report six days late; and an $800 fine for filing a similar report that was 16 days late. The state assesses $50 fines for each day a filing is late.

The campaign has asked the secretary of state to waive those fines, something the Maes camp has done in the past with limited results.

Over the past year, the campaign was fined numerous times, primarily for filing late reports for large donations, according to the Colorado Secretary of State’s website.

The other two major candidates in the race also have fines that need to be paid. McInnis owes the state $100, while Hickenlooper was fined $50.     – More –
