Democrat Travis Childers and Republican Greg Davis are pledging to end negative campaign ads in the waning days of the race for U.S. Representative.
The two candidates took part in a debate this past week sponsored by the Overby Center For Southern Journalism and Politics at the University of Mississippi in Oxford.
