With the November 7th election a little more than one month away, KDKA-TV hosted a debate for Allegheny County chief executive last night featuring candidates Sara Innamorato and Joe Rockey. NewsRadio KDKA's Rob Taylor has the story:
Both candidates faced questions including if the county should have a private company run the Shuman Juvenile Detention Center. Both candidates said it would be OK at least in the short term. On the issue of a county-wide tax reassessment, Innamorato supports it, but Rockey strongly opposes it. During their closing statements, Innamorato, who called herself a pragmatic progressive, said she's ready to go on Day 1.
