US Senate candidates Marlin Stutzman, Todd Young ready for TV debate

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — The Indiana Republican candidates for U.S. Senate are getting ready to air their differences in the only statewide televised debate ahead of the May 3 primary.

Candidates Marlin Stutzman and Todd Young meet Monday evening in Indianapolis. The candidates are both sitting congressmen who have been increasingly hostile as the primary gets closer.

Young is trying to paint his tea party-backed rival as an ideologue who puts obstructionism over passing legislation. And Stutzman has characterized Young as a pawn of the establishment.

Both were first elected to Congress in 2010. The Republican winner in the primary will face former Democratic U.S. Rep. Baron Hill in the November general election.

The seat is being vacated by retiring Republican U.S. Sen. Dan Coats.

The debate begins at 7 p.m. and will be broadcast live on 95.3 MNC. Tune in to 95.3 on your radio, listen live online or listen through the new 95.3 MNC app on your Apple or Android phone.
