TERRY ACCEPTS DEBATE INVITATION
Forum sponsored by League of Women Voters and Omaha Press Club
U.S. Rep. Lee Terry will debate his opponent, liberal State Sen. Tom White, at a forum sponsored by the League of Women Voters and Omaha Press Club this October, his campaign announced today.
The one-hour debate is scheduled for Thursday, October 14, 12 p.m., at the Omaha Press Club. The forum is considered to be the “traditional” debate for candidates in the Second district.
“Rep. Terry looks forward to debating his opponent at the Omaha Press Club. The debate is a good opportunity to show the voters the differences between the two candidates. Lee Terry is committed to cutting federal spending, reducing the trillion-plus budget deficit and tackling the nation’s huge debt problem. Tom White wants trillions more in federal spending that simply leads to trillions more in federal debt,” said David Boomer, Terry’s campaign manager.
Veteran television news anchor Gary Kerr will moderate the debate.
