On fiscal issues, John Sharp is more conservative than David Dewhurst. Who held a further reduction of property taxes hostage this year after the Sharp plan was put into effect? It was David Dewhurst. Who decided that the TIF tax should not be abolished for another year because we "need more government revenue"? It was David Dewhurst.
But, this has nothing to do with Tyroch's record of taxing and spending. Are the citizes of Temple better off now after giving up more of their tax money? If the answer is no, then they should vote for Ralph Sheffield, a man who has worked to create jobs through his small business. This race truly is a clash of small business owners interests vs government bureaucrats.
