INDIANAPOLIS – The Republican, Democratic, and Libertarian candidates for Indiana governor have agreed to meet on October 24 in a televised debate organized by the Indiana Debate Commission.
The Mike Braun (R), Jennifer McCormick (D), and Donald Rainwater (L) debate will be broadcast live at 7 p.m., from WFYI-Indianapolis, a public television station.
Commission member Laura Merrifield Wilson, a political science professor and host of WICR radio’s “Positively Politics,” will moderate the debate.
Founded in 2007, the Indiana Debate Commission (IDC) is a non-partisan, statewide, volunteer organization. It is the oldest independent and non-partisan debate commission in the nation.
This will be the Commission’s 12th general election debate featuring Indiana gubernatorial candidates. It will also be live-streamed at indianadebatecommission.com.
Braun, McCormick, and Rainwater are vying to succeed Gov. Eric Holcomb who is term-limited.
IDC president Elizabeth Bennion, a political scientist and long-time debate organizer said “We appreciate the candidates’ willingness to participate in a live, televised debate that helps voters statewide understand the candidates’ positions and cast an informed vote.”
