SEATTLE — Washington’s candidates for governor meet tonight (Thursday, Oct. 11) for their highest-profile debate.
The debate between Democrat Jay Inslee and Republican Rob McKenna, scheduled from 9 p.m. to 10 p.m., will be broadcast simultaneously on KING 5, KIRO 7, KOMO 4, KCPQ and Northwest Cable News.
That’s shortly after tonight’s nationally televised vice-presidential debate from 6 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.
One final TV debate between Inslee and McKenna is scheduled from 8 p.m. to 9 p.m. Oct. 16 in Seattle — this one will be co-sponsored by The Seattle Times and KING 5.
Polls indicate that the governor’s race remains competitive, with an Elway Poll in September showing the candidates running about even.
