DURHAM, NC (AP) — A Democrat candidate for North Carolina governor says debates would help people make informed decisions on their choice for a party nominee.
Ken Spaulding of Durham repeated his call Monday for fellow gubernatorial candidate Roy Cooper to debate him before the March 15 primary. Spaulding said earlier this month he wanted Cooper to commit to four to six debates. He said Monday he hadn’t heard from Cooper.
Time Warner Cable News said later Monday it had sent letters last week to candidates for governor about its intention to host debates with the League of Women Voters.
A Cooper campaign spokesman said earlier this month there would be plenty of opportunities for Democratic voters to meet and hear the candidates.
