GAINESVILLE - The three Republican candidates for the newly-drawn Ninth District Congressional post will face off in a debate Saturday at the Georgia Mountains Center.

The debate, jointly hosted by the Hall County Republican Party and the Lanier Tea Party Patriots, starts at 9:00 a.m. with a meet-and-greet session. The actual debate begins at 9:30 and is expected to last until 11:00.

Martha Zoller, Doug Collins and Roger Fitzpatrick will field questions from a media panel comprised of retired Jacobs Media News Director Ken Stanford, Gainesville Times Executive Editor Mitch Clarke and radio talk show host Ken Coleman.

Audience members will also have a chance to pose questions to the three GOP candidates.

The winner of the GOP race will face Democrat Jody Cooley in the November general election.

Please note the correction in the debate location.
