Bernero, Snyder To Appear At Same Forum

It's not a debate, but Michigan gubernatorial candidates Rick Snyder and Virg Bernero will be answering questions at the same event.

The Republican businessman from Ann Arbor and Democratic Lansing mayor will each speak and answer questions separately during a Friday morning forum at DeVos Place sponsored by the Grand Rapids Chamber of Commerce.

The pair shared a stage on Monday when Bernero showed up at a Snyder town hall meeting to ask Snyder to sit down with him and work out a schedule for debates.

Snyder has so far hasn't agreed to reopen talks on debates. He says Bernero should have accepted his debate offer last week.
