Candidate debate @ SPACE tonight
All eight Congressional District One candidates are confirmed to attend tonight's League of Young Voters debate at SPACE Gallery tonight, according to the League's Katie Diamond (although Charlie Summers, who is currently serving in Iraq, will send a stand-in). The event is co-sponsored by the League and the Professional Firefighters of Maine. In addition to standard opening remarks and prepared questions (posed by moderator Justin Ellis, of the PPH), each candidate will be able to direct one question to any other candidate of their choosing -- and depending on the candidates' creativity, this could be highly entertaining. The festivities start at 6:30 p.m. If you're like me and have a packed schedule tonight, you can still catch the forum on Portland's Community Television Network.
