Description | TAMPA - U.S. Senate candidate Mel Martinez refused Monday to debate rival Betty Castor the week before the Nov. 2 general election, marking the second time the Republican has balked at a major, statewide debate.
Media organizations are trying to organize six televised debates between Castor, the Democratic candidate, and Martinez, a Republican, but none have been scheduled so far.
Castor agreed to an Oct. 28 debate sponsored by WEDU-Ch. 3 in Tampa, but the Martinez campaign staff said they do not want to commit to a week likely to be packed with campaign activities.
