Challenges Opponents to a debate in every Congressional district
[Hazard, KY] Republican State Representative Brandon Smith (H-84), Republican candidate for State Treasurer, today challenged his opponents in the Republican primary to a debate in every Congressional District across the Commonwealth of Kentucky.

I have laid out a vision that includes a Kentucky Military Relief Fund, a financial management program, and a continuing education program for military personnel." "I will be traveling the state over the next 100 days telling the voters about myself and my vision.

To each their own. However a large number of debates for a public service post such as State Treasurer, does not seem to pose much interest with the general public. My guess is few would attend.
With so many Governor candidates, it s going to be hard for other "down ticket" candidates to be heard.
