Wolf agrees to one debate with Wagner, event to be moderated by Alex Trebek
HARRISBURG — Democratic Gov. Tom Wolf is agreeing to participate in just one debate before the Nov. 6 election with his Republican rival Scott Wagner, an event to be moderated by “Jeopardy!” host Alex Trebek.
Wolf’s campaign said this week that will be his only debate, and gave no explanation as to why. That prompted Wagner’s campaign to accuse Wolf of being “afraid to defend himself in front of Pennsylvanians.”
In the 2014 campaign, then-Republican Gov. Tom Corbett participated in three debates with Wolf. In their last debate, Wolf thanked Corbett for participating, and called it “a great democratic exercise.”
Wolf is seeking a second four-year term in office and has led Wagner in polls and fundraising.
