Join WKSU for the Presidential and Vice Presidential Debates


In an election dominated by massive spending and razor-thin margins, the four October debates are expected to be key to whether President Obama gets four more years, or Mitt Romney supplants him in the White House.

WKSU will air the remaining two Romney/Obama debates on Oct. 16 and Oct. 22.

Join us at 89.7 WKSU at 9 on each of those nights.
