A new commercial shows the mayoral race is getting heated.
Tom Martin criticized Mayor David Miller for increasing taxes and for the failure of the red light cameras program.
He says Miller is a tax and spend mayor.
KLBK wanted to know how these accusations will affect voters, so we took a copy of the commercial and showed it to folks around town.
"It always seems like they pull out the positives of them and the absolute negatives of the other person," said one Lubbock man.
"I don't like it when they attack the other candidate," said Adair Comer.
"If it's honest, then its not negative. If it's not honest it's bad," said Jason Hartis.
"It's going to get a lot uglier than this," said J. B. Mann.
Martin is not the only one throwing out accusations.
The Miller campaign created the website demandanaudit.com, criticizing Martin's decisions.
