TWIN FALLS, Idaho (AP) – Democratic gubernatorial candidate A.J. Balukoff is firing back against a new television ad accusing him of not knowing who he voted for in the 2008 presidential election.

The Republican Governors Association released a video Tuesday with footage of Balukoff telling an RGA cameraman he would have to see if he could remember who he voted for six years ago.

The Times-News reports that Balukoff’s campaign says the candidate did not answer the question seriously because the man had refused to say who he worked for while following Balukoff for nearly a month.

Campaign spokesman Mike Lanza says Balukoff voted for Democrat Barack Obama in 2008 and Republican Mitt Romney in 2012.

Balukoff is running against Gov. C.L. “Butch” Otter.
