[Vision2020] MCA Debates

[Tom]

Ms. Gray -

Not everybody can readily attend every debate.  There are those of us who 
welcome these debates without having to drive out to Troy or Deary.

I feel that a locally sponsored debate held in the most populated city in the 
county would attract all candidates of both parties.  A willingness to openly 
debate the issues is often reflected in election results.

See you at the polls.
