Gov. Greg Abbott has agreed to debate Democratic opponent Beto O'Rourke on Sept. 30, but implied it'll be the only debate he'll agree to. O'Rourke, who hasn't committed to the Sept. 30 date in particular, has asked for three town-hall debates.
O’Rourke said he would debate Abbott in the Valley but did not commit to the Sept. 30 debate. Without ruling it out entirely, he also called for three “town hall-style debates.”
The O’Rourke campaign said it additionally wants Abbott to “participate in three town hall-style debates in every region of the state during weeknights this fall where they can take questions directly from their fellow Texans.” Abbott’s campaign said the Sept. 30 debate “will be available in every media market, and on Spanish language stations throughout Texas.”, R-Texas, in 2018, they had a monthslong back-and-forth over debates. They ultimately agreed to three, though one of them did not happen because of the Senate confirmation battle over Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh.
