This week, just days before our exclusive and only U.S. Senate debate between Cheri Beasley and Ted Budd, we bring on two of the state’s top political consultants to break down the race and what we can expect. Paul Shumaker represents both current U.S. Senators and Morgan Jackson represents Gov. Cooper and Attorney General Josh Stein.
They both have extensive Senate campaign and debate experience. They will not only give us their take on what’s at stake for both candidates, but they will share behind-the-scenes stories on what it’s like to prepare for these high stake debates.
