It's now happened twice and I'm comfortable in concluding that listening to Dr. Malik for more than two minutes gives me a splitting headache.

Is this invite only?

With Jerry Walker skipping the debate in favor of a fundraiser, and Healy suing Fulop for playing Healy's FBI video, it should make for a lively evening.

Yes - its worth watching. Its pretty objectively edited too...Healy did not do well in this one at all. Angry, blustery, bullying, belligerence.

Is this the video from last week's Mayoral debate?

Jersey City election 2013: Mayoral candidates to debate for final time

By The Jersey Journal
on May 01, 2013 at 2:17 PM

The sixth and final Jersey City mayoral debate is scheduled for tomorrow night at School 4.

Incumbent Mayor Jerramiah Healy and City Councilman Steve Fulop, who are in a close race for the mayoralty, are set to appear, but former hoops star Jerry Walker said he will be absent because of a fundraiser he?s holding at the same time.

Fourth candidate Abdul Malik has not said whether he?ll attend, debate organizers say.

The four men have met previously at School 28, Lincoln High School, St. Peter's University and the Mary McLeod Bethune Life Center. Healy and Fulop met for a one-on-one debate at the Landmark Loew's Jersey Theatre.

The Jersey Journal?s own Terrence T. McDonald will help moderate the debate with E. Assata Wright of The Hudson Reporter.

The debate begins at 7 p.m. at School 4, 107 Bright St.

The election is Tuesday, May 14.

This is the Ward F debate which took place at Lincoln HS. It is edited to 68 minutes.

The April 30th Ward B Forum has been cancelled due to "scheduling conflicts and time constraints".

This is the only chance you have to see 3 of the candidates answering questions. Everyone should watch this.

It is too bad that there was no press coverage for the Mayoral Debate at the Bethune Center -- NAACP on Tuesday night. It was a doosy. (I am looking forward to seeing the video of this).

Hopefully we can get press coverage for the rest of the debates.

Gajewski had the best answers, Epps a no show, Johnson also made some good points but does not seem ready for prime time. Burg just did not do it for me, this is not a hippie town.

Fantastic ! See you there.
