Snelling vs Hackel escalates in Vermont race conflict
Republican gubernatorial candidate Richard Snelling accused Democrat Stella Hackel of misleading voters by stance shifting on major issues. He faulted her fiscal knowledge and claimed contradictions on land use, credit rating, taxes, and his role in fund transfers. Hackel proposed possible income tax rise to cover losses, while Snelling denies calls to raise sales tax. He notes tax revenue hinges on federal policy and refutes Hackel’s claim of a declining credit rating.
