The League of Women Voters of
Kentucky (LWVKY) regrets to announce that it will not be able to sponsor a
debate this fall between the two major candidates for the U.S. Senate seat from
LWVKY President Teena Halbig
said Senator McConnell, the Republican candidate, had his campaign notify the
League recently that he would not participate in a televised debate sponsored
by the League. The other candidate’s
campaign for Bruce Lunsford, Democrat, is willing to participate.
The League had invited both
candidates to participate in a debate to be produced in conjunction with the
annual meeting of the Kentucky Broadcasters Association that brings media from

"We're very disappointed
that we could not get both major senatorial candidates to agree to participate
in a debate this year," Halbig said. "We believe that televised
debates are one of the most effective ways for voters to learn about the
candidates and their positions. Exposing voters to a rigorous debate of the
critical issues facing this nation today is a cornerstone of the democratic
election process in

Kentucky has a history of sponsoring televised debates among major candidates

Halbig said that the League
issued the invitation in July when the candidates were certified and had asked
the candidates to respond. We felt we gave adequate time to plan the debate
with its sponsoring partners. She said that Senator McConnell’s campaign
notified the organization that they would only participate in four
debates. The first forum for the
candidates in this race just had 150 persons in the audience.
The League of Women Voters, a nonpartisan political
organization, encourages informed and active participation in government, works
to increase understanding of major public policy issues, and influences public
