Niland - Dagda Square Off Tomorrow

City Representative Cortney Niland and challenger Josh Dagda will face off in a debate tomorrow morning. The forum is sponsored by the West El Paso Republican Women and the moderator is Becky Hermosillo.

The actual forum starts at 9:30am and is part of the West El Paso Republican Women regular monthly meeting.

This will be the first time voters will be able to get a side-by-side comparison between the two candidates that are vying for the District 8 seat currently held by Representative Niland.

This is kind of an inside baseball thing, but I actually enjoy the West El Paso Republican Women debate because its always a well-run forum. Hermosillo asks probing questions and people walk away feeling like they learned something. Forums have a tendency to either be a "gotcha-fest" or a bore-fest of crappy generalized questions.

Hermosillo does a good job of keeping the debate flowing well and asking the right questions. She's even had Democrats attend the forums. So I'm looking forward to this one.

I'll live tweet the debate and you can follow me at www.twitter.com/TheLionStarBlog to keep up.

I'll do post-fight interviews with the candidates as well.
