Josh Hawley, Lucas Kunce face off in U.S Senate debate

-

ST. LOUIS – U.S. Senator Josh Hawley and Democratic challenger Lucas Kunce agreed to a live televised debate on Oct. 31, 2024, just five days before the general election. The debate will be broadcast at 7 p.m. across Missouri on Nexstar stations, including KTVI/KPLR-St. Louis, WDAF-Kansas City, KRBK-Springfield, and KSN-Joplin, as well as their digital platforms.

This event, titled “Debate Night in Missouri, the Race for the U.S. Senate,” marks the only scheduled debate between the two candidates in one of the country’s most closely watched Senate races. Viewers can tune in to see the candidates discuss their positions and address key issues facing Missouri voters.

The debate agreement comes after months of public challenges and a face-to-face confrontation between Hawley and Kunce at the Missouri State Fair in August. Both campaigns have been actively engaging in media advertising, with each accusing the other of misrepresenting their positions on various issues.

Recent polling by Emerson College, The Hill, and Nexstar shows Hawley with an 11-point lead, though the incumbent suggests the race may be closer. Key topics likely to be addressed during the debate include abortion exceptions, IVF, electric vehicle mandates, and potential presidential endorsements.

Nexstar Media, Inc. aims to provide a balanced and accessible platform for the candidates to present their views, aligning with the company’s commitment to informing voters, and fostering well-informed electoral choices.
