(North Dakota Monitor) – North Dakota Republican candidates for U.S. House may not debate face to face before the June 9 primary election.

U.S. Rep. Julie Fedorchak, R-N.D., said she hasn’t heard from people who are calling for a debate between her and challenger Alex Balazs.

“I don’t intend to debate Alex,” Fedorchak told the North Dakota Monitor Wednesday. “He hasn’t laid out any real differences in his record with mine, and there’s not a lot of issues to debate, in my opinion.”

Balazs, who was endorsed last month by the North Dakota Republican Party, said he’s open to debating Fedorchak at any time, and he believes there are differences between their policy positions.
