Democratic Attorney General primary debate at Kirksville canceled

KIRKSVILLE, Mo. (AP) -- Candidates for the Democratic attorney general primary race will not be debating this week in Kirksville after all.

A debate had been scheduled for 7:30 p.m. Thursday at Truman State University. It was sponsored by the Truman State Young Democrats.

Organizers say the debate was canceled because of last-minute schedule changes by some of the participants. There are no plans to reschedule the debate.

The Democratic candidates include Sen. Chris Koster of Harrisonville and Reps. Jeff Harris of Columbia and Margaret Donnelly, of St. Louis.
