Reprinted from the Adrian Daily Telegram:

ADRIAN — The Daily Telegram and radio station WLEN-FM, along with the League of Women Voters, will sponsor a debate Tuesday with candidates for the 7th Congressional District and the Michigan House seat representing most of Lenawee County.

The event is at Siena Heights University’s Francoeur Theater.

The debate starts at 7 p.m. with the two Michigan House candidates, Democrat Dudley Spade and Republican Jim Koehn. Following a 10-minute intermission, there will be questions for the Congressional race’s four candidates: Sharon Renier of the Democratic Party, Tim Walberg of the Republican Party, Robert Hutchinson of the Libertarian Party and David Horn of the U.S. Taxpayers Party.

Candidates will field questions from both the media and spectators. Admission is free.

If you're in the Adrian area, go cheer on Sharon Renier and ask the tough questions of Tim Walberg. I'm not sure if I'll be able to make it-- of all the days to hold it, they picked that one-- but I'd love to get someone there to give a post-debate report for the blog.

While you're there, tell Dudley Spade that he's been doing a fantastic job, too. Remember, Spade (a Democrat) represents the seat Tim Walberg once held. Both Dudley and his brother Doug before him have been much better legislators.
