Claire McCaskill and Attorney General Josh Hawley.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The debate comes as most polls show a tight race between McCaskill and Hawley. And few observers believe that Democrats have any chance of taking over the Senate if McCaskill can’t win a third term.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Among other things,</span> <a href= "http://news.stlpublicradio.org/post/health-care-party-independence-are-major-themes-mccaskill-hawley-senate-debate"> <span style="font-weight: 400;">the candidates debated</span></a> <span style="font-weight: 400;">health care, immigration policy, “right to work” laws, global warming and Second Amendment rights. Hawley contended that McCaskill is too liberal for a state which went for President Donald Trump by 19 points. McCaskill emphasized her independence, someone who will work with “anyone, anytime” to address the state’s needs.</span></p>
