DULUTH, MN (Northland's NewsCenter) - It was Milwaukee mayor versus standing governor at Friday's debate as challenger Democrat Tom Barrett took on current Republican Governor Scott Walker.
It was the first of two televised debates, and jobs were again a big talking point.
Job numbers in campaign ads have been a source of contention between the two candidates. Friday was no different. Both parties defended their job numbers.
They also debated collective bargaining reforms, the proposed mine near Mellen as well as the reason this election is happening in the first place.
While Barrett says Walker has caused neighbors to not be able to speak to neighbors because of politics, Governor Walker defended his reforms saying no one's talking about them anymore because the reforms are working, but he would change the process in the future.
Money from outside has been pouring in final weeks ahead of the election.
If Governor Scott Walker were to lose, he would be only the third recalled governor in the U.S. in history.
The election will be held June 5.
Several polls have been showing Walker with a slight lead.
