University of Delaware Hosts a One-Candidate Debate for U.S. House

On October 15, the University of Delaware was the location for a debate for Delaware’s U.S. House seat. Four candidates are on the ballot: Democratic incumbent John Carney; Republican Rose Izzo; Libertarian Scott Gesty; and Green Party nominee Bernard August. Two weeks before the event, Republican nominee Izzo said she would not attend. Nevertheless, the debate sponsors refused to invite the Green and Libertarian, and went ahead with only Carney in attendance. See this story.
