FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Duffett, Freeland & Keltie KKTV CD-5 Debate Set for Oct 5th
Colorado Springs, Colorado, September 28, 2020 (Monday) – Colorado 5th Congressional District Unity Party Nominee Rebecca Keltie (https://keltieconnection.com/), Democratic Nominee Jillian Freeland (https://jillianfreeland.com/) and Libertarian Nominee Ed Duffett (https://www.edduffettforcongress.com/) are set to define their positions on the many issues facing the nation in a KKTV (CBS Colorado Springs) debate scheduled for 630pm MT Monday October 5th.
“I’m looking forward to having a conversation with fellow candidates about the future of Colorado’s Fifth Congressional District,” says Democratic Nominee Freeland. “Far too many elected officials, including Congressman Doug Lamborn, are too scared to debate their opponents. This demonstrates weak convictions and unwillingness to be accountable for the decisions they make on our behalf. The candidates who truly wish to serve and stand with their constituents will show up on October Fifth; I wonder where Doug Lamborn will be?”
“I look forward to this discussion as well, and am a firm believer that all of the most pressing issues facing our nation right now stem from the lack of a coherent COVID response,” says the Unity Party’s Keltie. “I am that rare politician who has practiced what she preaches on COVID, I am happy that KKTV has agreed to this Zoom debate, and it’s time to cull the Congressional herd.”
“This nation will survive,” says Libertarian Nominee Ed Duffett, “but it’s our Liberty I’m most worried about. I look forward to reminding the voters of the Pikes Peak region that they have yet another choice in this election, and that choice is freedom, the freedom to respond to any crisis as one sees fit, in a manner that is peaceful, honest, and in the best interests of that individual.”
