NOTHSTEIN, WILD DEBATE SHELVED
LIKELY TO BE LAST DEBATE ATTENDED BY REPUBLICANS
The Lehigh Valley league of women voters held a debate on October 25. in Northampton county. The debate was attended by around 200 supporters of both candidates. The League told those interested that there was no need to tape the debate as they would make it available for viewing on their website. I personally did not attend the debate, expecting to view it on local TV as has been the custom in the past.
It seems that the democratic candidate Susan Wild did not have a very good night. I have been told by several parties that Wild had a Freudian slip, not once but twice, on the question of immigration. It is reported she answered,"I am for open bor...", oops and then went on to say she was for enforcing the law. Whether this was an accident or trying to impress both camps in the crowd we will not know, especially since the League has decided they will not put out the video for viewing. Some have said, they will put out parts of the debate, those that were favorable to Wild.
The league has always portrayed itself as a non partisan group, but it seems it has succumbed to the growing practice of becoming not a facilitator of information for the community, but a player on the side of the democratic party. I viewed their website, it is a 100% left leaning partisan agenda. That is OK, every organization has a right to reflect the views of their members.
Hey, Lehigh Valley League of Women Voters, just be honest with voters, you are just one more left wing activist group. You will able to host all the Democratic primary debates of the future.
