Loretta Sanchez ducks first U.S. Senate debate with Kamala Harris
Despite saying she wanted plenty of U.S. Senate debates, Democratic Rep. Loretta Sanchez’s campaign consultants have not responded to a formal request from media partners, including The Sacramento Bee, which was first issued in June.
Democrat Kamala Harris’ frontrunner campaign for the state’s first open Senate seat in 24 years announced early this month she would participate in the proposed Sept. 20 debate. In addition to The Bee, the sponsors were KUVS Univision 19, KVIE, Capital Public Radio and California State University, Sacramento.
The media partners sent both campaigns a proposed format on Aug. 15 and asked for a response by the close of business Monday to allow about four weeks to plan the event. Her campaign did not respond or return messages left Tuesday.
