Diebel Camp Has No Answer For Tax Raising Past!

 

Recently, the Karen Diebel campaign has become desperate and is engaged in a smear campaign against the front runner, Craig Miller, in the GOP Primary to take on Suzanne Kosmas in November. While registering only 3% in the polls, Karen Diebel has struggled to explain her tax raising record as a Winter Park City Commissioner. Instead of offering an explanation, she has chosen to attack Craig Miller with baseless allegations. However, facts are a stubborn thing.

Below is a detail Diebel’s tax raising record with citations:
