Reality Check: 1 Attack Ad Leads To Another Amid Clean Campaign Pledge

DENVER (CBS4) - With Election Day less than two weeks away, the Democratic gubernatorial primary is turning ugly.

First, Cary Kennedy's Super PAC ran an attack ad, now Jared Polis' Super PAC is slinging mud.

Political Specialist Shaun Boyd breaks down the claims and looks at what happened to that Clean Campaign Pledge the candidates took.

The governor's communications director clarified that the governor is disappointed about the negative ad, not specifically Cary Kennedy.

The governor also told Fox News that he is disappointed about this ad by Polis PAC too and that he thinks it's "hitting below the belt" to use his face in the ad.
