The William J. Hughes Center for Public Policy at Stockton University and The Press of Atlantic City will co-sponsor a debate between the Atlantic City mayoral candidates.
The debate will take place before a live, public audience at 7 p.m. Oct. 14 at Stockton’s Atlantic City campus, 3711 Atlantic Ave., in the Fannie Lou Hamer Event Room. It also will be livestreamed by the Hughes Center and The Press.
A recording will be archived on the Hughes Center’s YouTube channel.
Democratic incumbent Marty Small Sr. and Republican candidate Naeem Khan have agreed to participate. Other candidates who meet minimum campaign finance thresholds and file campaign spending reports will be invited.
“Hosting the Atlantic City mayoral debate on our Atlantic City campus underscores Stockton’s commitment to our community,” Tina Zappile, executive director of the Hughes Center, said in a statement. “By providing a public forum where residents can hear directly from the candidates, both in person and online, we are helping Atlantic City voters make informed decisions about the future of their city and strengthening democracy in our region.”
Alyssa Maurice, assistant director and head of research and polling at the Hughes Center, and Buzz Keough, executive editor of The Press, will moderate the debate.
The Press and the Hughes Center will accept questions from the public in advance of the debate. Only the moderators will pose questions during the debate.
