Tickets for Sedona’s mayoral debate on Oct. 6 are sold out1 min read

The Sedona Red Rock News will host a traditional head-to-head debate between Sedona mayoral candidates Samaire Armstrong and Scott Jablow on Thursday, Oct. 6, starting at 6 p.m., at the Mary D. Fisher Theatre.

Armstrong and Jablow unseated the incumbent mayor in August and advanced to a runoff in November.

Unlike a forum with pre-written questions provided in advance, a panel of moderators will pose live questions the candidates have not seen and encourage back-and-forth discussion so candidates can debate issues most vital to Sedona residents.

Tickets are now sold out. If you called to reserve tickets, there are available at the Sedona Red Rock News newsroom at 298 Van Deren in Uptown.

We will be streaming the debate live and posting the debate online after the fact.

For more information, call (928) 282-7795, ext. 129, or email editor@larsonnewspapers.com.
