DescriptionRepublican challenger Cory Gardner on Tuesday released a new ad that criticized incumbent Rep. Betsy Markey for "voting for the most fiscally irresponsible budget in history."



But Markey was among a handful of House Democrats to vote against the fiscal year 2010 budget, and she did so twice, according to the roll call votes mentioned in Gardner's ad.

Markey "felt the proposed budget was far too large, and did not include deep enough spending cuts from each of the federal departments," campaign spokesman Ben Marter said.
