Republican gubernatorial candidate Doug Ducey is fighting back against a group’s attack ads on him, saying the group failed to properly notify Ducey’s campaign that the ad was going to air.
Better Leaders for Arizona has mounted a $775,000 ad blitz, lambasting Ducey for the money from unknown sources spent to presumably help him this election cycle, saying he “uses front groups to smear his opponents.” The TV ad also blames him for a 31 percent failure rate among Cold Stone Creamery franchises while he “got rich” running the company. It says that he had 13 traffic citations, failed to appear in court 16 times and that he didn’t pay delinquent property taxes in 2008 and 2009.
