The University of Mary Washington will host a public political debate between candidates for Virginia\u2019s 88th District House of Delegates seat on Tuesday, Oct. 26, at 7 p.m.<\/p>\n

\"UMW
UMW will host a public debate next week, on Oct. 26, between candidates for Virginia’s 88th District House of Delegates seat.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Democrat Kecia Evans, Republican Phillip Scott and Libertarian Tim Lewis will face off live via Zoom, with public viewing accessible through\u00a0YouTube<\/a>. Viewers may submit questions for consideration for inclusion in the debate using an\u00a0online form<\/a>\u00a0until 11 a.m. on the day of the event. Incumbent Mark Cole (R) announced earlier this year that he would not seek reelection after nearly two decades in office. The 88th district covers part of Fredericksburg and Spotsylvania, Stafford and Fauquier counties.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile COVID has forced us to debate online this fall, we can look forward to vigorous discussions about the path forward for Virginia,\u201d said moderator Stephen Farnsworth, UMW professor of political science and director of the University\u2019s Center for Leadership and Media Studies.<\/p>\n

The event is being hosted by Mary Washington\u2019s College Republicans, Young Democrats and Student Government Association. It is co-sponsored by the Fredericksburg Regional Chamber of Commerce,\u00a0The Free Lance-Star\u00a0<\/em>and the League of Women Voters of the Fredericksburg Area. News Director Ted Schubel of WFVA Radio and Editorial Page Editor Barbara Hollingsworth of\u00a0The Free Lance-Star\u00a0<\/em>will ask questions of the candidates during the hourlong debate.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt’s important\u00a0to stay involved and learn about the candidates running in this election to make sure everyone is able to make an informed decision when voting at the polls,\u201d said UMW junior Kate McDaid, a philosophy major and Campus Vote Project Fellow.<\/p>\n

The second of two debates hosted by the University of Mary Washington this fall, the Oct. 26 event spotlights local elections and comes just days after UMW\u2019s inclusion in the Voter Friendly Campus Report, listing schools that successfully support voter education and engagement.<\/p>\n

\u201cOne of my favorite traditions at Mary Washington is our ability to host candidate debates for area elected offices,\u201d Farnsworth said, \u201cand the willingness every year of those candidates to join us to discuss the future of our region.\u201d<\/p>\n
