Pingree and Russell to meet in single pre-election debate
Original: Pingree, Russell to meet on debate stage once, days before November election
Democratic Congresswoman Chellie Pingree and her Republican challenger Ronald Russell will share a debate stage once, just days ahead of the November election, in their race for Maine's 1st Congressional District. The single face-off gives voters limited opportunity to compare the candidates, with the timing leaving little room for follow-up before ballots are cast.
Why now: The November election is approaching and this is the candidates' only scheduled debate, drawing attention to the race.
