The League of Women Voters is co-sponsoring a debate for all three candidates for U.S. House in Florida’s 24th district. The three candidates are Democratic incumbent Suzanne Kosmas, Republican Sandra Adams, and Green Party nominee Nicholas Ruiz III. It is scheduled for October 13 at 7 p.m. The 24th district includes the Cape Canaveral area. The debate will be televised on WBCC-TV.
Ruiz is not on the ballot, but is a declared write-in candidate. The Green Party is ballot-qualified, but Ruiz is not on the ballot because the very high filing fee prevented him from qualifying for the Green Party primary.
Excellent news! Mainly because of the inclusion in the debate but also the fact that if third party/independent candidates can file as write-ins because of the high ballot access thresholds, it’s great!
