Source: Only District 1 Candidates Featured in Debate Tonight

A source familiar with the debate has indicated that tonight's debate will only feature the District 1 candidates.

Apparently the debate format says that if only one candidate is available for the debate, that a debate for that race will not take place.

In districts 5,6 and 8 there are only two candidates in each race. Two candidates have scheduling conflicts and a third candidate allegedly refuses to answer questions from the debate's moderator David Crowder.

The candidate apparently has taken issue with reporting Crowder has done on a story in which she was involved and was concerned that Crowder would raise the issue in the debate.

Therefore the debate will only feature the District 1 candidates, which is good because there are 6 of them.
