SALT LAKE CITY — Independent presidential candidate and Utah native Evan McMullin sent out a fundraising email Monday to a list of supporters purchased from the GOP's 2012 nominee, Mitt Romney.
The email from McMullin does not mention Romney or a possible endorsement, although "Romney for President Inc." and a Massachusetts address appears in small print at the bottom.
"We're just very thankful for his assistance in this way, and we'll let other folks discuss what that may mean and certainly never speak for the governor," said Joel Searby, McMullin's chief strategist.
In response to questions about the list, Romney spokeswoman Leah Malone said in a statement that the "Romney for President email list is rented by political and commercial entities."
Malone said the list "was rented by several political candidates in the presidential primary, and by countless other political and commercial users in the time since the 2012 campaign."
McMullin, a former CIA officer and policy director for U.S. House Republicans, got in the race this summer as a conservative alternative to the major party candidates, Republican Donald Trump and Democrat Hillary Clinton....

Is he a write In because he is not on the ballot in Texas.
I guess we know why McMuffin is still in this race. Must be easy work being a Romney lapdog.

..............spoiler for the Cheap Labor Express.
Romney must be shunned after this election.
If Mormons are stupid enough to cost Trump the election, they should be as well.
If they come to my door they better be wearing magic underwear.
Am I the only citizen who believes that this Evan McMullen dude out in Utah is Romney's hired hand to try to punish Trump for challenging the GOP establishment of which der Mittster is a charter member? That diluting the vote for Trump, who beat 16 -- count 'em -- 16 other guys to win the nomination and will HELP PUT CLINTON in the White House matters little to a Mitt scorned. Putting the entire country in the crapper will teach you DEPLORABLES & IRREDEEMABLES that defying your masters has a very, very steep price!
When Governor Lester Maddox was told of the violence in the Georgia prison system, he remarked that "I think we need a better class of criminal."
Sounds like a plan for most of the current political class!
My GOD...I voted for this clown. Not like we had a choice!!
I posted the actual McMuffin email solicitation on FR and highlighted that it came from the Romney list using MailChimp email campaign services.
***I thought it was an outrage and wanted to get some activists to help bring this possibly illegal usage to light.***
Yet, some old fart posted a comment that just seeing the traitorous email upset him and the mods pulled the post along with nearly supportive 40 replies.
Go figure: I am certainly not a newbie AND I am a regular donor in support of Jim Robinson and FR over 12 years.
Yeah...it’s a shame there isn’t a way for President Trump to deport him...so maybe he’ll self-deport like the Hollywood libs always threaten to do.
It's as plain as the nose on your face. Romney has turned into the biggest sore loser since Gore.
Anyone backed by Romney cannot be the “true conservative” he claims to be.
