So who is this Perry Haney guy who’s going to challenge Morgan Carroll for the CD6 Democratic nomination?
1. A Chiropractor, who has had his medical license restricted in two different states (IA and CO) because of unnecessary massage therapy, and overcharging patients. Pols, 12/13/1, quoting from the IA board findings.
2. A “moderate Democrat” who has donated $16,000,mostly to Democratic legislators or committees since 2009. He contributed to Scott McInnnis’ run for Governor in ’09. TRACER, contribution search.
3. Someone with no facebook presence at all, as Nancy Cronk noted in the #1 post. He seems to get around to Democratic fundraisers, and is mentioned by others, but has no social media presence of his own. This always raises a red flag for me; I interpret it as the track of someone who doesn’t want to be bound by past history. Facebook search
4. A perennial candidate for CD6, Perry ran in 2012, and loaned himself $370,000 to do so. Pols, 2/2012 article
5. Haney flirted with the idea of running in CD3 in 2012. He ended up running, then dropping out of the running for CD6 , after he received a campaign finance complaint from Call’s CRCC . Haney had raised substantial monies without committing himself as a candidate. Pols, Legal briefs on file with FEC.
6. A guy with good credit, apparently, as he took out a $1 million loan to self-finance the CD6 campaign. FEC page for Perry Haney. Morgan Carroll has no finances on file with the FEC as of July 17, 2015.
7. A candidate that Colorado Republicans love to write about (because otherwise, you see, they would have to write about Morgan Carroll). Colorado Peak Politics.
8. A candidate with no identifiable issues or positions, except that he’s “tired of career politicians in Washington”, and “thinks CD6 deserves better”. I agree. To start with, we need a real Democrat, not just a Republican Lite contender like Perry Haney.

Here's the link to the Iowa Board of Medicine Press Release.
Dr. Haney has three licenses to practice medicine within Colorado: Medical, Chiropractic, and Electrotherapy. There are stipulations on his medical and chiropractic licenses, probably dating from the 2004 complaint. I wasn't able to view them on the Colorado DORA lookup site. Other than that, he seems to have been a model businessman, and is probably a nice guy.
This does not mean I want him representing me in Congress.
