Kaine for Virginia Announces Debate Comments

Press Release

Today, the Kaine for Virginia campaign announced it has accepted eight broadcast debate invitations to date for the U.S. Senate general election campaign.

The debates, all of which will be broadcast to television and radio audiences across the Commonwealth, will give millions of Virginia voters firsthand access to the candidates. They will be held in geographically diverse regions of the state, and are sponsored by a cross-section of Virginia organizations and media outlets.

"The stakes in this election are extremely high and all Virginians deserve an opportunity to hear directly from the candidates on issues of regional, state, and national importance," said Kaine for Virginia Communications Director Brandi Hoffine. "Our priority is to participate in enough broadcast debates so that all Virginians get a chance to compare the candidates side-by-side. We look forward to working with George Allen's campaign to make sure that happens."
