On Wednesday July 28, 2010, the DC Republican Committee will be hosting a debate between David Frum and Tucker Carlson. It will be held at the Capitol Hill Club in the California Room from 6:30 PM to 8:00 PM. The Capitol Hill Club’s address is listed below.

As described by the DC Republican Committee:

“David Frum will discuss why he is active in local politics and has a Dave Hedgepth for Ward 3 lawn sign in his front yard. Tucker will talk about his upbringing in Washington and the importance of getting active in the local level. Ever think your vote doesn’t count if you are a registered Republican in DC? Listen to Frum debate why you should register as a DC Republican and Carlson defend why he is of the same Political Party as Marion Barry and Nancy Pelosi.”

Admission is 10 dollars, but is free if you register to vote at the door. RSVP to Paul at Paul@dcgop.com
