The UVA Center for Politics and NBC 12 Richmond have announced agreement on a televised debate in October between gubernatorial candidates Tim Kaine and Jerry Kilgore. Russ Potts will be invited “if he demonstrates at least 15 percent support in public polls.” Professor Larry Sabato will moderate.
From the press release:
This 2005 gubernatorial debate will take place in the Richmond studios of NBC 12 and will be made available via satellite for live broadcast to all television stations regardless of network affiliation. It will be up to each station to decided [sic] whether to carry the debate; citizens are encouraged to contact their local station to urge that they carry the debate. While specific details will be negotiated in the near future, the format will be similar to that of the gubernatorial debate that the Center for Politics hosted in 2001.
All you Potts fans, hope Rasmussen or Mason-Dixon calls you.
