Rep. Yoder says he will debate Democratic challenger three times before general election. Rep. Kevin Yoder’s campaign announced Monday that it had agreed to a series of three debates between the incumbent and the Democratic challenger primary voters select today (assuming Republican voters select Yoder to advance to the general as expected). There will be one debate in each county that makes up part of the Kansas 3rd Congressional District: Johnson, Wyandotte and Miami. The debates will be hosted by the Kansas City Kansas Chamber of Commerce Congressional Forum, the Johnson County Public Policy Council and the Miami County Farm Bureau Association.
