Glassman Agrees to TV Debate

PHOENIX, Ariz. – Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Rodney Glassman has agreed to debate John McCain later this month on KTVK-3TV in Phoenix.

The hour-long, formal debate is set for Sunday, Sept. 26. It will air live on KTVK and be streamed to the station’s website, azfamily.com. The station is also seen in Yuma on cable, and station officials hope to set up a feed for one of Channel 3′s sister stations in Tucson.

“We’re happy that for one hour, every six years, John McCain seems to care about the issues important to Arizona, including jobs, securing the border and improving public schools,” said Glassman campaign Communications Director Blake Morlock. “If he really cares about these issues, he will work constructively right now to create jobs, secure the border and fix Arizona public schools, rather than simply obstruct until later.”
