CO-SEN: Sen. Cory Gardner campaign ad under fire, legislative aide in crosshairs
A separate Wild for Colorado Facebook page is populated with advisories about Gardner's voting record on environmental issues (11 percent by the League of Conservation Voters and zero percent by the Humane Society's "scorecard"
. That FB page also contains posts promoting Gardner's Democratic opponent, former Colorado Governor John Hickenlooper.
Now, the Hickenlooper campaign tells the Indy there's a little more to this story.
The campaign submitted a records request for Killey's time sheets during her time with Lundeen's office and found she apparently filed initial paperwork for Wild for Colorado LLC during work hours.
The document was filed at 11:11 a.m. March 9. A legislative aide time sheet shows Alexandra Killey, the name listed on the Secretary of State filing, claims to have been on the clock for Lundeen at that very time. That raises questions about whether Killey was performing political tasks — setting up the so-called shell LLC used in Gardner's ad — while being paid by taxpayers to serve as Lundeen's aide.
It's worth noting that Lundeen signed off on the time sheets, and Killey had previously attested she'd read the handbook for aides and agreed to follow its policies. Potential penalties for doing political work at taxpayer expense include criminal liability and termination.
