A spokeswoman in a Proposition 105 TV ad said she's not a turncoat and is outraged over a news release sent to the media Friday by backers of a competing land-reform measure.
Kimberly Owens said she never told the Las Rancheras Republic Women's Club luncheon audience to not vote for Proposition 105.
Owens said she did field a question Friday from a Scottsdale audience member who said she wasn't going to vote for either proposition because she was so confused. "I told her that's not an entirely bad idea because it would bring all the stakeholders back to the table and perhaps come up with something else that will meet more needs," Owens said. .

Any chore is easier if you know how to do it correctly. Here are pointers for some of the maintenance jobs on your fall checklist: Caulking A gap in an exterior wall lets heated air escape. Common places for openings include the edges of doors, windows and chimneys, the places where pipes or wires enter the house, and the joint between the foundation and the walls.
