Two Colorado Republicans with knowledge of the Republican Governors Association's plans said Tuesday that the political committee has decided not to bankroll television and other ads supporting GOP gubernatorial hopeful Dan Maes.
Maes spoke at length with RGA leaders Tuesday to discuss how the group might help him, financially or otherwise. He was told that election laws ban political committees from discussing financial and strategy matters with campaigns, Maes spokesman Nate Strauch said.
The phone call marked Maes' most substantive conversation with the group, typically a power player in gubernatorial races, Strauch said.
"We're certainly hopeful for their help, but we're not expecting anything," Strauch said.
