“The Indiana Debate Commission looks forward to hosting a fair and informative discussion of the issues that matter most to Hoosier voters,” commission President Elizabeth Bennion said in a news release. “We appreciate the candidates’ willingness to participate in a live, televised debate that helps voters statewide understand the candidates’ positions and cast an informed vote.”

The Indiana Debate Commission is a nonpartisan, statewide, volunteer organization founded in 2007.
