A photo montage on Senate candidate Andrew Romanoff's website was manipulated to make it appear as though an African-American supporter was standing directly at his side in the shot.
This picture of Andrea Mosby, who attended the event, was inserted into the crowd photo.
The woman, former Denver School Board candidate Andrea Mosby, was at his campaign kickoff at Washington Park last September. But she was not standing directly next to Romanoff when that particular picture was taken.
Mosby said Wednesday she has no problem with what happened, and Romanoff's campaign said it did nothing wrong in putting together a series of photos that appear to be one.
"We're not putting in someone who wasn't at the rally. We do nothing that suggests the rally is bigger than it was," said campaign spokesman Roy Teicher.
"The practice of using Photoshop is absolutely accepted under these circumstances."
He said the issue was a nonstory and blamed Romanoff's Democratic primary rival, U.S. Sen. Michael Bennet.
