A press release just in from the Walz campaign:
Today, Congressman Tim Walz challenged Dr. Brian Davis to three additional debates during the final six weeks of the 2008 election cycle.
“I’ve always believed that democracy functions best when people can make informed decisions about the candidates on the ballot,” said Walz. “I think debates are critical to elections because they allow people to directly compare two candidates on the issues. I’m proud of the values I stand for and I believe my vision for the future of southern Minnesota stands in stark contrast to Dr. Davis’ view. I’m eager to ensure southern Minnesotans see the differences between us and I challenge Dr. Davis to join me at three debates.”
Walz is challenging Davis to accept the following three debates:
Rochester Chamber of Commerce Debate
Tuesday, October 2, 2008

Saturday, October 4, 2008 (record the debate)
