Note: Although this was a well-organized and well-run debate forum, one unfortunate incident did mar the event: Contrary to the sponsors' own Debate rules and guidelines announced at the beginning of the debate (i.e., that all questions would be asked of all candidates), long-time Sultan resident Burl Champeaux was allowed to ask a specific question, exclusive to Candidate Kerry Ourada.
