ALBANY, Ga. — If gubernatorial candidates typically spar during debates, the televised debate between former Democratic Gov. Roy Barnes and former Republican Congressman Nathan Deal Tuesday night was more like a bare-knuckle, back-alley brawl.
In a televised debate shown live throughout Southwest Georgia from WALB-TV's Albany studio, the two candidates traded barbs over much of the same issues rehashed during previous debates.
But it was their statements regarding water protection and trauma care that are likely to resonate most within the region, as fears grow that Atlanta's worsening water shortage may threaten vital downstream water supplies used by the agriculture industry and as gaps grow in the state's trauma network in rural areas.
