Malone-Crooks debates

Bonnie asked last week if there were any planned debates between State Rep. Jack Malone, D-Norwich , and his Republican challenger Norwich Alderman John Crooks.

There are currently two scheduled, and potentially two more in the works, for a total of four.

The first is a bit out of the ordinary in that it is not open to the public. Malone and Crooks have agreed to debate before an Norwich Free Academy Civics' Class on Wednesday morning, Oct. 11. The reason it is not open to the public is for safety reasons - very limited parking at the school campus, and concerns about opening the debate to the public while school is in session.

The second confirmed debate is slated for Nov. 1 at the Norwich Senior Center, 7-9 p.m. That one is open to the public.

Malone is attempting to secure a place and date for a third debate in Scotland, and there may be a fourth debate in either Sprague or Canterbury.
