By Evan Brown, PolitickerAZ.com Reporter

Ed Hermes, who is running to unseat Maricopa County Supervisor Fulton Brock in the 1st District, offered a subtle jab at his opponent as he denied to PolitickerAZ.com that Al Macias had any affiliation with his campaign. 

Macias, the longtime Board of Supervisors spokesperson, was recently fired for a variety of ethics violations. Hermes said that his contact with Macias was confined to a telephone conversation.

"He called in a personal capacity," said Hermes. "He wanted to go to lunch and talk about issues."
