The candidates will be given an opportunity to share their perspectives on the policies that make this race one of California's most consequential elections ever, just five days before Primary Election ballots are mailed to registered voters. Former state controller Betty Yee previously accepted an invitation to participate from CBS California but has since suspended her campaign for governor.
"By bringing together our three CBS-owned stations across California, and in partnership with Pomona College and APAPA, we're creating a unified, statewide forum that brings voters closer to the candidates and the issues shaping California's future," said Tim Wieland, regional president and general manager of CBS Los Angeles and CBS Colorado. "This kind of access is central to the role local journalism plays in accountability and keeping our communities informed."
"This debate extends far beyond a single stage, reaching communities across California with direct access to the candidates and their ideas," said Scott Warren, regional president and general manager of CBS Bay Area and CBS Sacramento. "Serving audiences at scale across multiple markets is where our local stations can make a meaningful difference, and our AR/VR pre-show is one more way we're deepening engagement to help bring the issues into clearer focus for voters."
"Pomona College is honored to host the most inclusive debate in this year's cycle thus far," President G. Gabrielle Starr said. "Civic engagement and dialogue across differences are necessary for a thriving democracy – and core to the liberal arts tradition here at Pomona College.
The debate will be broadcast live from Bridges Auditorium across CBS-owned stations in Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego, Sacramento, Fresno, Bakersfield, Palm Springs and Santa Barbara. It will also be streamed on CBSLA.com, CBS Bay Area, CBS Sacramento and CBS News 24/7, and its YouTube channels.
