   Democratic gubernatorial candidate Mark Eves fired a campaign staff   
   member Thursday following allegations that the staffer has a history   
   of sexually harassing women.   
      
   Campaign spokeswoman Jodi Quintero said Brandon Maheu, who was   
   brought on to help manage the campaign on Monday, was fired Thursday   
   morning.   
      
   Maheu said in a written statement Friday, which he also posted on   
   Facebook, that Eves “did the right thing” and that he is “truly   
   ashamed” for his actions. He said has been receiving treatment for   
   the past six months “to change myself and my life.”   
      
   “I have failed myself, my colleagues and my loved ones,” wrote   
   Maheu, who declined an interview with the BDN.   
      
   Quintero said Eves learned of the allegations when a woman contacted   
   him Wednesday night and severed the relationship with Maheu and his   
   firm, Everywhere Strategies, on Thursday morning.
