LOUISVILLE, Kentucky — Senator Mitch McConnell today released the following statement regarding Monday’s debate with Amy McGrath:
“Never in the history of Kentucky politics has one candidate worked harder to avoid a debate than Amy McGrath. From demanding other candidates accompany her on the stage to making ultimatums about the gender of the moderator, it has been truly bizarre to watch the McGrath campaign continue to find excuses not to debate.
“Unlike my opponent, I have followed CDC guidelines entirely, adhered to my physician’s advice regarding testing, and have never exhibited any symptoms during the COVID pandemic. I applaud the patience of Gray TV and the University of Kentucky students for continuing to provide this platform, and I look forward to Monday night.”
