McSally staffer resigns after odd exchange with Barber campaign (Gabrielle Giffords seat)

http://azstarnet.com/news/local/govt-and-politics/elections/mcsally-staffer-resigns-after-odd-exchange-with-barber-campaign/article_e8f5be7c-ba34-11e1-88b1-001a4bcf887a.html


The campaign spokesman for Republican Congressional candidate Martha McSally
is out after an accusation he offered campaign advice to a staffer of Democrat Ron Barber.

The unsolicited advice — apparently jotted down on a business card —
provided tips to the staffer on defeating fellow Republican Jesse Kelly.

McSally’s campaign issued a news release this morning saying Sam Stone
resigned as communications director. The statement thanks Stone for helping to
launch the McSally campaign during the Congressional District 8 primary but
doesn’t address the exact reason for his ouster.
