The final debate between the principal candidates for the Democratic Senatorial nomination will begin shortly in Louisville.
Frontrunner Bruce Lunsford and Louisville businessman Greg Fischer - Lunsford's nearest challenger in the latest polls - are among the five candidates set to take the stage at Vincenzo's restaurant in Louisville for a lunchtime debate.
The event is only the second in which Lunsford and Fischer will jointly participate in a debate. Monday's televised KET debate was the first.
That contest featured Lunsford and Fischer exchanging barbs on party loyalty, among other things.
Today's debate is sponsored by the Louisville Forum, a non-partisan issue gfroup.
The Democratic primary lies just 6 days away, on May 20.
