"Of the seven Democrats running to replace Katie Hill in the CA-25, four will gather for a candidate debate at a Palmdale brewpub on Thursday night.

Notably missing will be Assemblywoman Christy Smith, the candidate endorsed by the California Democratic Party and a litany of other Democratic officials, as she has to be in Sacramento, performing long-scheduled public duties. So, why is the debate going forward without a key player?

“We had been asking for a debate publicly since the beginning of the race, and a few of the campaigns expressed interest in doing one,” stated Mackenzie Shutler of political consulting firm Blue Strat, working on behalf of the Cenk Uygur campaign. “Unfortunately, we did not hear back from Christy Smith’s campaign despite multiple attempts to contact them through email and social media and this date worked best for all the campaigns that did respond."
