Mandela Barnes, Joel Brennan, David Crowley, Francesca Hong and Kelda Roys will faced off in the hour-long debate moderated by WISN 12’s Matt Smith and Gerron Jordan.

It took place at Marquette University.

The questions and topics ranged from the Madison police shooting to data centers.

Question 1 to David Crowley

Question 4 to Joel Brennan and Kelda Roys

You are both polling in the single digits, and have been since the start of this race, at this point, are primary voters wasting their vote on a vote for you?
