A new website reminding Berks County voters of Democrat Judy Schwank's record of raising taxes has been launched.
The site - 52% Judy Schwank - takes its name from the fact that Schwank voted to raise property taxes by a total of 52% when she was a Berks County Commissioner.
"Judy Schwank Has Experience: She Knows How to Raise Our Taxes" states the website.
In addition to her record of raising taxes, the site also has information about a campaign contribution Schwank took in 2003 from former state Sen. Vince Fumo, who is now serving a federal prison sentence after he was convicted of corruption charges last year.
The site also disputes Schwank's claims of creating jobs while she was a county official.
The Republican candidate for the special election in the 11th Senatorial District (which was held by the late Sen. Mike O'Pake and covers most of Berks County) is Larry Medaglia, the current Register of Wills in Berks County.
The special election will be held Tuesday, March 15.
