CD-5: Doug Still Won't Debate - House Seat Trending D

Doug Lamborn is going to run on "low taxes". I guess $8 Trillion in debt is OK for this fiscal conservative.

He still won't debate the candidate with superb military experience who's turned this into a race.

Will the same old Republican tactics of dealy, deny, and disrupt work on CD-5's voters?

I think they're smarter than that:

Given the importance of this election to my generation’s future, I began making preparations for a debate at Colorado College on Oct. 12 between the two aspirants, with my school’s president, Richard Celeste, extending invitations to both campaigns. Fawcett responded in the affirmative shortly thereafter but Lamborn declined, citing complications with his schedule. The Republican nominee’s decision to cut and run from a debate at Colorado College reinforces a dominant view held by students that politicians ignore their views, but it also deprives us of the opportunity to make an informed voting decision.

If Lamborn is truly unable to dedicate a mere hour to discuss important issues to our commonly overlooked demographic, how can he expect our support in the voting booth on Nov. 7?

The race is slipping away from Republicans.

Will they treat our voters like mushrooms - keep them in the dark and feed them b.s.? Or will they respect the democratic process and the requirements of citizenship?
