 The first governor's debate since the primaries being held tomorrow at Grandview Lodge in Niswa. The Democratic nominee Tim Walls will face off against Republican nominee Jeff Johnson in their first one-on-one debate. The debate is going to be held in the Gull Lake Center and being put on through the part through a partnership between the Minnesota Brainerd Lakes and Niswa Chamber of Commerce and the North Central State's Regional Council of Carpenters. The event will be moderated by Tom Hauser and will cover many topics that are important to the Brainerd area. This area is incredibly important to the state of Minnesota due to our natural resources but also we're a tourism destination. We have a great business mix here and we feel like we're going to get into a lot of those topics tomorrow but for our area it's just a great asset to have the first governor's debate right in our backyard. There is still time to sign up and to attend the debate the event is free but registration is required.
