Braun, McCormick and Rainwater face off in final debate: live updates

The debate between the three candidates, hosted by the Indiana Debate Commission, will be the last chance for voters to hear all three candidates on one stage before Election Day. It runs Thursday from 7 to 8 p.m. and is hosted by Laura Merrifield Wilson, professor of political science at the University of Indianapolis and host of the radio show “Positively Politics.”

A lot has happened in the race since the candidates last met in early October: McCormick has narrowed Braun’s lead in fundraising, although Braun remains ahead in both spending and fundraising. Indiana Republicans sent attack mailers against Rainwater, signaling concerns that the libertarian could harm Braun’s performance on Election Day. There was also further controversy with Braun’s vice presidential candidate Micah Beckwith, who said he would fire state employees who use pronouns in their email signatures and called for refugees to be deported from Logansport.
