    The Democrats running in a primary for New Jersey governor are set to go head to head in their second and likely final debate before the June 6 election.

    The debate in Newark between the four leading candidates in the race will air on NJTV on Thursday, May 11, at 8 p.m. You can also watch it above. 

    The Democrats held their first debate on Tuesday. The debate lacked the kind of rhetorical fireworks that accompanied last year’s presidential debates, but offered candidates a chance to present themselves to a mostly undecided field of primary voters.

    Republicans will meet May 18, also in Newark on NJTV.
