Candidate debates

I sure would like to see this, but I don't have Comcast. Is there some other way to 'witness' the debate?

Even Chickenopolis will get a Mayoral debate. Tonite on local 29/40 all 8 mayoral candidates in
Springdale will go at it. It should be fun, that is if you don't have to stick your self with a DBI pin to stay awake.
Take Jonah's advice over at Iconoclast. NONE of them. He's right.

The NLR Ward 3 Section is heavily edited and does not reflect all that happened during that portion. The LOWV should be ashamed of this. The voters of NLR Ward 3 deserve to see the entire thing UNEDITED. Notice there are 4 guys on the podium in a couple of shots, but only 3 answer questions?
PS. Data correction for your post. Jim Ard did not participate. Steve Baxter did.
