  • Fiorina sent mailers to the 1,366 convention delegates as well as likely GOP voters that criticized Campbell’s tax record, such as his refusal to sign the “Taxpayer Protection Pledge,” his support for temporary state tax increases and the 2005 state budget that he crafted as Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger’s finance director.
