October 5, 2018Faso-Delgado to Debate at WMHT October 19 at 1 p.m.
Rep. John Faso (R-Kinderhook) and Antonio Delgado will participate in a live debate at WMHT Studios located at 4 Global View, Troy, NY on Friday, October 19, 2018 at 1pm with a re-airing that night at 8:30pm on WMHT-TV.
The race for the 19th Congressional District seat is traditionally one of the most watched and most expensive in the country. A Democrat has not held the seat since 2010, but Barack Obama did win the district in both 2008 and 2012.
Faso won decisively over Zephyr Teachout two years ago (watch their WMHT debate here), but recent polls by Siena College and Monmouth show the race to be a virtual dead heat.
The debate will be available over-the-air to viewers of WMHT and listeners of WSKG, the PBS/NPR affiliate in Binghamton, New York. It will also be live-streamed at NYNOW.org. The program will re-air the evening of October 19 at 8:30pm. Tickets can be reserved on Friday, October 12 at 10am by going to NYNOW.org/debate. Questions can be submitted in advance at NYNOW.org/debate or on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram.
