Republican candidate Tom Tiffany and Democrat David Crowley clashed over abortion, taxes, immigration and the growing data center industry in Wisconsin during a gubernatorial debate on Wednesday night, Fox News reported. The candidates are seeking to succeed Democratic Governor Tony Evers. [1]

According to Fox News, the candidate debate was hosted by WISN and took place less than two weeks before Election Day. During the event, Tiffany pointed to a 20-week limit on abortion, while Crowley declined to specify a gestational cutoff. [1]

Fox News reported that a September Marquette Law School poll showed Crowley leading Tiffany by 49 percent to 46 percent among likely voters. That margin remains within the poll margin of error in a tight race for the state executive office. [1]

The debate comes as political campaigns intensify across the region. As FTMQ News reported earlier, gubernatorial and Senate candidates in neighboring Minnesota have also recently engaged in debates centered on state governance and political scandals. [4][5]
