Inflation, abortion and a range of other national issues dominated the first and only debate between Democratic New York Sen. Charles Schumer and his longshot Republican challenger, Joe Pinion, on Sunday.
The longtime incumbent, who serves as majority leader of the Senate, sought to take the high road as Pinion launched a barrage of personal attacks in the session aired on NY1.
The challenger, a former anchor at right-wing outlet Newsmax, hurled a range of insults at Schumer throughout the hourlong debate held at Union College in Schenectady, New York.
