The forum comes on the heels of a series of combative encounters between the candidates. In a West Philadelphia debate last month, tensions flared when Krasner questioned Dugan’s political affiliations, implying a connection to Republican President Donald Trump. Dugan bristled at the accusation, forcefully rejecting the suggestion and calling it a distraction from real issues.

“We’re not running against Donald Trump,” Dugan retorted. “We’re running against each other. Stop running against Trump and run on the safety of the city of Philadelphia.”
