The Republican and Democratic candidates in

Kansas’ 1st Congressional District are set to have two debates

before the Nov. 2 general election.

Republican state Sen. Tim Huelskamp, of Fowler, is scheduled to

face off against Democrat and former Salina Mayor Alan Jilka on

Sept. 27 at Emporia State University.

Their other debate is Oct. 21 in Salina.

Huelskamp and Jilka are seeking the U.S. House seat now held by

Republican Jerry Moran, who’s running for the U.S. Senate.

Before the August primary, Huelskamp and Jilka participated

together with other candidates in three other forums.
