The Denver Post reports that a state hearing officer recommended $57,647.16 in fines for Victor Marx’s campaign after finding it accepted contributions above Colorado’s legal limit during the primary race. The recommendation includes penalties for 200 excess individual contributions and 10 cash contributions. The campaign may file exceptions with the deputy secretary of state, whose final order could be appealed to a state judge.

What to know

The proposed fine is not yet final. The campaign can submit exceptions before the deputy secretary of state issues an order, and any final decision may be appealed in state court.
