State GOP: Dump Edwards, Van Hollen after no-shows

Voters should "dump" Congressional Democrats who don't show up to debates, according to the Maryland Republican Party.

The GOP has taken U.S. Rep. Donna Edwards (D-Fort Washington) and U.S. Rep. Chris Van Hollen (D-Kensington) to task for failing to debate their Republican opponents.

"It is the height of arrogance to refuse to show up to debates sponsored by the League of Women Voters, as Chris Van Hollen has done," Jim Pelura, chair of the state GOP, said in a statement.  "[Republican Congressional candidate] Steve Hudson is a veteran, doctor, and has a record of working to improve his community. Voters should have the opportunity to compare the two."

Van Hollen did not attend a debate in October after being required to attend an impromptu Congressional caucus meeting on an emergency financial program.

"Donna Edwards criticized Rep. Al Wynn for refusing to debate her in the Democratic primary, but is now turning around and refusing to debate [Republican Congressional candidate] Peter James," Pelura added.

Both Van Hollen and Edwards were contacted for comment but have not responded.
