Republican candidate for Attorney General John Adams has agreed to numerous debates with his opponent Attorney General Mark Herring. However, Herring has refused all debates after the first one in June. On Monday John Adams campaigns reminded Herring that 4 years ago Herring agreed to a debate sponsored by the Loudoun Chamber of Commerce. (Herring’s home is in Loudoun.) Concerning the Loudoun debate, Adams said,
“This debate is in his own backyard. One has to wonder why he still hasn’t given the Loudoun Chamber an answer,”
Later on Monday Herring’s campaign manager, Adam Zuckerman, announced that Herring would accept the Loudoun Chamber’s request for a debate. Finally. Zuckerman also said this second debate would be Herrings last debate in this campaign.

Dems shy away from debates because they don’t want to be accused of mass debating. 🙂
Sure wish that debates were mandatory, publicly announced and that the debaters were hooked up to lie detectors visible to the audience.
I missed the earlier debate. Watching now: https://youtu.be/hKfBjS2mv68
