so they got to make things up like repugs everywhere.

ETA - finally getting around to reading the whole article. The comment by the spokesperson for the Hubbell campaign is quite a rebuke of the Reynolds assertions:

“Unsurprisingly, without a positive record or vision to run on and a lackluster general election start, the extremely vulnerable Kim Reynolds has to resort to cherry picking and grossly distorting facts against Fred Hubbell from over 30 years ago,” said communications director Remi Yamamoto in a press release.

The Hubbell campaign points out that Younkers actually vastly expanded their workforce during Hubbell’s leadership, growing it from 3,000 to 4,100 positions from 1986 to 1989. They also noted that he allowed for extra overtime and days off for workers, created Farm Aid scholarships for students during the Farm Crisis and that the store had high customer satisfaction overall."

I hope somebody calls her on this during a debate. Lying politicians need to be humiliated in public.
