Replay: 13th Congressional District Debate (minus Rangel)


In case you couldn’t catch it live last night, here’s the 13th Congressional District debate in its entirety. You’ll hear from four of the five candidates looking to represent this new Bronx-included district, including Clyde Williams, Craig Schley, Adriano Espaillat and Joyce Johnson. But you will not hear from incumbent Charlie Rangel, who said he couldn’t attend because of a previous engagement. Rangel did show up at an earlier debate yesterday in Manhattan. Thanks to everyone at the Riverdale Press and BronxNet for making this important conversation happen.
