Conlin dismisses issues charge in gubernatorial bid
Gazette political writer Ken Sullivan reports Roxanne Conlin defending her three way race for Democratic governor as she dismisses Ed Campbell and Jerry Fitzgerald attacks.

She says proposals and programs will matter beyond the economy and rejects sales tax increases as a solution.
