Test 3

Candidates in contested races debate in Plainville

PLAINVILLE - North TV hosted three debates Wednesday night in the large meeting room at town hall in advance of Monday's annual town election.

Sun Chronicle columnist Bill Gouveia and WARA talk show host Paul Healy asked questions of the candidates.

The consensus among many was that the last debate was the most spirited of the night with the two people vying for a seat on the select board disagreeing on a number of issues.

Incumbent select board chair Brian Kelly is facing off against finance committee member Sherrill Minch with a three-year seat on the line.
