Gubernatorial candidates Roy Barnes and Nathan Deal politely offered competing visions on the issues of health care, transportation and water supplies Wednesday at a candidates’ forum at The Commerce Club in downtown Atlanta.
The forum was notable for its lack of fireworks from the two candidates, who have been blasting each other’s ethics in recent weeks. Sitting close to each other at the forum, the two were courteous as they took turns answering questions from the audience and moderator Jeff Hullinger, of WXIA Channel 11 Alive.
Among the topics they discussed was the constitutionality of the national health care overhaul, which requires people to buy health insurance. That change will not take effect until 2014. Georgia is one of 20 states challenging the constitutionality of the law.
