The 2nd Congressional District candidates have agreed to another debate.
Following Republican candidate Ed Tinsley’s challenge last week that Democrat Harry Teague agree to an additional debate focused entirely on the economy, the two candidates agreed on Monday to an Oct. 23 debate that will be televised on KOB-TV, Tinsley said in a news release.
“Our voters will now have an opportunity to judge for themselves who is best to look out for their interests on Capitol Hill, where negative, partisan attacks aren’t going to get the job done,” Tinsley said in the release.
“We face the largest overhaul of government regulators since the Great Depression,” said the statement from Tinsley’s campaign. “… When a new president and Congress are sworn in just four months from now, Ed Tinsley will be ready on day one to push for reform of our nation’s financial sector.”
The candidates had already agreed to a televised debate that will be held Oct. 19 in
