Atlanta mayoral candidate Lisa Borders released her 2008 income tax returns Thursday and asked her campaign rivals to do the same to be transparent to voters.
A spokesman for candidate Kasim Reed agreed, but challenged Borders to take it a step further.
"We see her 2008 and raise her 2000 through 2007," said Reed spokesman Reese McCranie, urging the candidate to release her taxes through each of those years. "There's not much transparency in one year's taxes."
Borders made $119,317 in 2008, according to her income tax form. The majority of her income, $84,639, came from her consulting business, campaign officials said. The rest came from her salary as City Council president. Borders was hired in December 2008 to run the fundraising arm of Grady Memorial Hospital.
