Response to Negative Campaigning.
Our campaign has always been positive. In fact, I strongly object to negative campaigning! Many attacks have been sent out against me by the Unions, Trial Attorneys and NSEA. They are about a volunteer position. I was asked to be on by a former Tax Commissioner in the Nebraska Revenue Department, years after I left the Revenue Department. It happened when I was working for an Education company that become acquired by another company. You may remember the office we had in West Point until the acquisition. My new job, new responsibilities, schedule with the new company would not permit the time off. I stepped down from the volunteer “taxpayer panel”. The position was not a paid job or employment! –Lydia Brasch
