Format set for Friday’s debate
fter bashing each other for several weeks in campaign ads, the two main candidates for South Mississippi’s congressional seat will square off in their first and only debate Friday night on a local TV channel and radio station.
The debate between incumbent Democratic U.S. Rep. Gene Taylor and Republican challenger state Rep. Steven Palazzo will run from 6 to 7 p.m. Friday on WKFK Digital TV-7 and on News Radio 104.9, and will be streamed live on wkfk.com and newsradio1049fm.com.
Tammy Moore, with WKFK, said that after flipping a coin to see who goes first, each candidate will give an opening statement. The candidates will then answer about a dozen questions, with two minutes for each answer and 30 seconds for rebuttals.
