As we’ve been reporting, we were expecting to bring you the third installment in our series of primary debates today.

Last week, the Republican candidates in each of the U-S Senate races went toe to toe on stage at Union College in Schenectady. We had hoped to be hosting the two Republicans running in the race for governor in a debate at Onondaga County Community College tonight, but only one of the candidates accepted our invitation. Rick Lazio informed us only last week that he would not participate. He cited scheduling conflicts and insisted there was unable to make time for to debate prior to the September 14th primary – more than two weeks away. And so, in fairness to the candidate who did agree to our debate.

Carl Paladino joined Liz Benjamin from Syracuse.
