Wyllie Invited to Broward College Gubernatorial Debate

PALM HARBOR, FL – Adrian Wyllie, the Libertarian challenger in race for Florida Governor, announced today that he has been formally invited to the “Decision 2014: Before You Vote” debate to be held on October 15th at Broward College.

The debate, hosted by Leadership Florida and the Florida Press Association, is being billed by the organizers as “the most respected televised debate in modern Florida history.” Though this event is only one of the six announced Florida Gubernatorial debates, it is the first to have been confirmed by the Scott, Crist and Wyllie campaigns.


“Mr. Wyllie, thank you for devoting yourself to public service,” said J. David Armstrong, Chair of Leadership Florida, “We look forward to a great exchange of ideas at this important debate.”

“We are pleased that Leadership Florida and the Florida Press Association has extended this invitation to us, and have acknowledged that there is a viable third option in this race,” said Wyllie. “I gladly accept their invitation without preconditions.”

Wyllie’s inclusion in this debate may cause the major-party frontrunners to call a temporary ceasefire in their seemingly endless barrage of attacks. “I intend to give straight answers to questions and offer Floridians real solutions,” said Wyllie, “I just hope that Rick and Charlie can stop slinging mud for an hour or so, and discuss the important issues.”

The debate organizers had previously announced that Rick Scott and Charlie Crist had accepted invitations, despite the fact that both candidates still face a primary election challenge. ....

Oh, how I'd love to be down there to help. I'll live blog and watch from home though. He really is going to slaughter Crist and Scott. This'll be fun.

It'll be fun Indeed, I'm trying to get tickets for a small group to make some cheers for the broadcast viewers to hear the support! Oct. 6th is the deadline to register to vote, lets make a power move as Wyllie is polling at 9% or higher with at least 12% undecided a full month before the debate!

 

[jeffro97]

If he is on the debate stage that night, his numbers are going to increase. Without a doubt. Rick Scott is a sleazeball, and Charlie Crist can't even hold a position for 5 seconds. It's amazing how I see people with Charlie Crist stickers. It's like they don't even remember what he did as Governor the first time. Ugh.

I cannot wait to see that debate. Adrian is going to be on fire that night.

How troubling is it that as a broward college student I'm having the darnest time trying to obtain tickets?

Shame on you sir! JK, but seriously though, if you can get tickets, I say go. Even if he isn't in the debates, the material you could collect while in there would be terrific for the campaign. That, and it's going to be hilarious to watch the other two completely flop all over the floor, especially Charlie.

He's actually not invited apparently. He filed a lawsuit.

He was invited sometime in May, but had to meet certain requirements, which he didn't. The lawsuit is to challenge those requirements, which is a 15% polling rate. His attorney was responsible for putting a third party candidate into the governor's debate in 2006, after it'd been determined that the rules were established to keep him out. In 2006, it was 7%, but only this year, did they raise it to 15%.

Just a quick summary of what I know.

My last email I got from him put him at 14.74% in a poll. I'm telling you, Wednesday I will be on campus at the debate talking to anyone there asking them isn't it unfair that every option for governor isn't able to voice their opinions and show how they could be the best option? It's completely asinine to continue this. Every state just keeps changing the percents needed. If Floridians can't see at least this much foolishness going on in our state, New Hampshire's looking better and better every year.
