SACRAMENTO, Calif. - U.S. Senate candidate Carly Fiorina is the second Republican running for high office in California to acknowledge a spotty voting record.
The former head of Hewlett-Packard, who is running for the seat now held by Democrat Barbara Boxer, says she has no excuse for not voting more often when people have died for that right.
"Shame on me," she said Thursday during an event in Sacramento.
According to Fiorina's campaign, she voted in six of 14 elections in California since 2000. She lived in New Jersey for the previous 10 years but never voted.
Another Republican, gubernatorial candidate Meg Whitman, also has been criticized for a poor voting record. She acknowledged it was unacceptable.
