State GOP rips Stender on tax woes
By Daniel TrudeauNew Jersey Republican Chairman Tom Wilson released a statement Monday blasting Assemblywoman and Democratic congressional candidate Linda Stender (D-Union) on her own tax problems.
In the statement, Wilson said Stender's business accrued $90,000 in unpaid local, state and federal taxes over the last three years, paying only when faced with liens on her business.
Wilson said Stender has consistently voted to raise taxes in the state Assembly while neglecting to pay her own business taxes.
"Stender's raised taxes 64 times as a legislator, but when it comes to paying her own taxes, she routinely takes a pass," Wilson said in the statement. "The last thing Congress needs is another tax and spend liberal all too eager to raise everyone else's taxes because she doesn't want to pay hers."
Stender is facing off against state Sen. Leonard Lance (R-Hunterdon) in New Jersey's 7th Congressional District. She failed in a 2006 bid to take the seat from incumbent Republican U.S. Rep. Mike Ferguson (R-Ridgewood), who is not seeking reelection.

Did you even contact Stender for a response?
Or were you just in such a hurry to post you couldnt be bothered to contact her campaign?

Look at 95% of the stories the least 3 days , all about the Dem convention, I don't see much republican responses in there.
You better help your girl out, it seems she needs money,,,,,
Once again the GOP fails
This is just a replay of the Ferguson tactic used on Maryann Connelly, when she was poised to beat him. The GOP has nothing to offer but the same old same old bull on taxes. Stender is a leader and belongs in Congress representing the 7th CD
Stenders checks and mail ?
all marked Return to STENDER
Poised?
She was poised to beat him? What are you smoking? She lost by 6 points in an open seat. You and your campaign conspiracies make Oliver Stone look rational.
