Stringer rival for NYC controller goes on offense

 CONTROLLER- 07/22/2013- MANHATTAN, NEW YORK

New York City controller candidate John Burnett has been sticking with his campaign touting experience.




Scott Stringer‘s little-known Republican rival for New York City controller launched an all-out attack Tuesday in a TV debate.


“You have no experience in auditing; you’ve been in politics for 25 years, and you owe a ton of favors. I’m surprised you still even have your own soul,” ex-Wall Streeter John Burnett said early in the faceoff.

Stringer, the Manhattan borough president, is widely expected to coast to victory, and largely brushed off Burnett’s broadsides.


“I know you’re new at this,” he said at one point.
