Three top-tier candidates will be missing frm Monday's U.S. Senate primary debate at Villanova University.
Pa. Senate debate turns into a game of political chicken as Dr. Mehmet Oz, center, cites a schedule conflict, and Carla Sands, left, and David McCormick, right, say they'll wait for a chance to confront each other.What was once looked like a big night for Pennsylvania Republican voters has lost some luster as several top-tier candidates for the GOP’s nomination for the state’s open U.S. Senate seat will be missing from Monday’s scheduled debate at Villanova University.
With the absence of television personality Dr. Mehmet Oz, and the 11th-hour dropouts of former hedge fund executive David McCormick and former U.S. Ambassador to Denmark Carla Sands, what once could have been billed as the “Thrilla at the Villa” is now a bit more like a rerun of a forum held in Lawrence County over a month ago, with candidates Kathy Barnette and Jeff Bartos sharing the stage with some lesser-known hopefuls.
