What might be the only debate between the two candidates for Governor of CALIFORNIA will be held live at KQED INC. noncommercial News-Talk KQED-F/SAN FRANCISCO at 10a (PT) on OCTOBER 8th.
Democrat GAVIN NEWSOM and Republican JOHN COX will square off on KQED's "FORUM," moderated by KQED Sr. Political Editor SCOTT SHAFER in FORUM's regular conversational format. While calls won't be taken on the air, questions are being solicited from the audience in advance. The show will be made available live or delayed to other radio stations.
“We are pleased to be hosting a debate and discussion about the future of CALIFORNIA with the two candidates for governor,” said KQED VP/News HOLLY KERNAN. “It’s our mission to support an informed and engaged citizenry. We are very glad the candidates are willing to engage with each other and we hope the conversation is substantive.”
