Next gubernatorial debate on Sunday

Minnesota's three major-party candidates for governor get back to the business of debating Sunday. Oct. 3, during a Jewish Community-sponsored event.

The debate is scheduled at 4:30 p.m. at Mount Zion Temple in St. Paul. A news release today from the Jewish Community Relations Council of Minnesota and the Dakotas said the debate will focus on the "changing face of Minnesota," with particular emphasis on "the role of international trade in improving Minnesota's economy, the challenges and opportunities of immigration to Minnesota, and the increasing responsibilities of our National Guard."

DFLer Mark Dayton, Republican Tom Emmer and Independence Party candidate Tom Horner have debated more than a dozen times since the primary election. But this week there were no debates scheduled.
