Galloway campaign calls McDowell’s finances into question, McDowell says attacks are ‘wildly inappropriate’


JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. – Just days after the primary election, Missouri’s candidates for State Auditor are already exchanging jabs.

In a release issued on Friday morning, Auditor Nicole Galloway’s campaign blasted Republican candidate Saundra McDowell on issues of fiscal accountability and whether she met Missouri’s residency requirement to run for that office.

“Saundra McDowell has demonstrated poor financial management of her personal and professional affairs since she first arrived in Missouri eight years ago,” said Galloway spokesman Eric Slusher. “Missouri voters would be wise to closely scrutinize a candidate who has shown she cannot keep her own financial house in order before putting her in charge of the state’s fiscal watchdog agency.”

The concerns raised by Galloway’s camp center around the issue of whether the 38-year-old McDowell meets the 10 years of residency in the Show-Me State as required by state law.

According to the Galloway campaign press release, “McDowell first arrived in Missouri in mid-2010 and proceeded to amass tens of thousands of dollars in civil judgments and wage garnishments associated with a failed law practice and poor personal financial management.”
