On October 25, WJZ-TV hosted a U.S. Senate debate for the Democratic and Republican nominees for U.S. Senate in Maryland. Three candidates are on the ballot, a Democrat, Green, and Republican, but the only two candidates invited to debate were the Democratic and Republican nominees. The sponsor said only candidates who were at 15% were invited. However, no poll for the U.S. Senate race in Maryland has been taken during October that asked voters to choose among the three ballot-listed candidates.
Here is a story about the protest carried out by Margaret Flowers, the Green nominee. The debate was taped and has not been aired on television yet. It will be aired the evening of October 26, but it is extremely likely that the first 20 minutes will be edited out.
Who is the Libertarian Party nominee? The Green Papers only lists three candidates. http://www.thegreenpapers.com/G16/MD
Arvin Vohra
Thanks, Jeremy. You are right. Arvin filed a declaration of candidacy, but the Maryland Libertarian Party didn’t nominate him, so he is not on the November ballot. I re-wrote the post.
Good for her. She should have been invited all along, but this may boost her totals a little.
This poll lists Flowers (see page 9 of PDF):

Thank you, Jason. I see it was taken September 17-20. I amended the post to say there has been no poll that mentioned all three candidates taken during October.
