On Oct. 26, candidates for Missouri's 7th Congressional District will engage in debate at Missouri State University and the public can find out more about them and their stand on key issues.

Sponsored by MSU's Center for Community Engagement and the Holt Spicer Debate Forum, the debate will last between 60 to 90 minutes and will be moderated by Dr. Elizabeth Dudash-Buskirk and Dr. Eric Morris, both associate professors of communication at Missouri State. 

The event is free and open to the public on a first-come, first-served basis.
