Braley and Ernst Debate in Race for U.S. Senate Seat

WVIK

It seems like the only thing democratic congressman Bruce Braley and republican State Senator Joni Ernst have in common is that they both grew up in Iowa. During a debate in Davenport Saturday night, the candidates for U.S. Senate clashed over almost every topic--from health care and foreign policy to Ebola and campaign ads.

Renata Sago reports.

A rebroadcast of the debate will air on WVIK next week, as well.
