DescriptionThere's no such thing as public seats for next month's presidential debate at Arizona State University.

Locally, only donors who've given or are willing to give $100,000 or more to help put on the debate here will likely obtain tickets to the Oct. 13 event at ASU's Gammage Auditorium, said Virgil Renzulli, head of the ASU Presidential Debate Steering Committee.

A group of ASU students chosen by lottery will get inside Gammage to see President Bush and his Democratic challenger, Sen. John Kerry.

For the rest of the Valley's residents, live seating will be out of reach.

"This is a television event. It is not intended to have a big audience," Renzulli said.
