Golden received Bartholomew email; deleted it

From Kenny Golden:

Ladies and Gents, not sure what David’s status is at this point but he told me today the email did come from his computer and wanted to know if I had seen it or sent it out. I told him I had never seen anything like this and if I had I would have contacted him to remove it. Deidre Hernandez told me tonight I was on the header as well. Could be but I never saw it and Francie (my wife) told me she did and immediately deleted the racist joke. I saw it for the first time as Brian from Channel 13 brought me by a copy tonight. I didn’t tolerate that in my service or in my life and wouldn’t have in an email. I do not think David would have purposely sent anything like this out. He believes he accidently sent it out and I accept his apology. He has been a wonderful Vice Chairman for me and did more for outreach in the Republican Party than I ever did. I am deeply sorry he was involved in this controversy as I have never seen any racist tendencies in his conduct in my 6 years of knowing him.

    Kenny’s personal email, [removed by editor], is a shared email between him and Francie. She regularly goes through and deletes or forwards email to the staff for attention when Kenny is not home. It is one of her many contributions to the campaign. Anyone who really knows Kenny knows this and knows that he would never do anything to hurt David. To say his staff did it is just as crazy, why directly implicate themselves in something that doesn’t help anyone and only hurts the Republican Party members whom Kenny and his staff are still friends with.
