PBS Hawai‘i hosts Republican gubernatorial candidates in live forum

Insights on PBS Hawai‘i continues its four-month series of live candidate forums this Thursday with three Primary races, including a discussion with all three candidates in the Republican Primary for governor.

State Rep. Andria Tupola, John Carroll and Ray L’Heureux are scheduled for a live discussion this Thursday, July 26 at 9:00 pm.

Set to precede that discussion are 30-minute live forums for Democratic Primaries in two State Senate races. At 8:00 pm are Roz Baker and Terez Amato, who are running for Senate District 6 on West and South Maui. Afterward at 8:30 pm, Ken Ito and Jarrett Keohokalole, candidates for Windward O‘ahu’s Senate District 24, are scheduled for a live forum.

The candidate forums are scheduled for Thursday evenings through Nov. 1, with a hiatus Sept. 6 and 13 for PBS Hawai‘i’s third KĀKOU – Hawai‘i’s Town Hall.

Insights is also live streamed on pbshawaii.org and on PBS Hawai‘i’s Facebook page. As always with Insights, viewers can join the discussions by phone, email or social media during the live program. Viewers may email their questions or comments to insights@pbshawaii.org, use the #pbsinsights hashtag on Twitter, or leave a comment in each Facebook live stream.

The conversational format of PBS Hawai‘i’s weekly live public affairs program sets these forums apart from traditional televised debates. Without the pre-arranged constraints of a structured debate, viewers will have a greater chance of witnessing the candidates as they are, while they engage in free-flowing discussions about community issues.
