First up are Tina Taviano and Ken Fries. The Allen County Sheriff candidates will be given the opportunity to ask each other questions during a 30-minute live debate on Sunday, Oct. 22, at 6:30 pm. Tom Hayhurst and Mark Souder will square off on Wednesday night, Oct. 25, at 7:00 pm. No word on the format as of this writing.
