Democratic candidate for governor Gretchen Whitmer booted campaign manager Keenan Pontoni as a result of inappropriate behavior.

"Yesterday, I received a credible report that a number of years ago, my campaign manager engaged in inappropriate behavior with people in the workplace and for that reason I have asked for and received his resignation effective immediately," she says Thursday in a statement.

Pontoni joined Whitmer's staff in August, replacing a previous manager.
