RALEIGH -- Politely sparring in their only televised debate, Democratic Senate candidates sought Wednesday night to convince voters that they would be the strongest challenger to Republican Sen. Richard Burr in the fall.

The debate was held at a crucial point in the campaign, one day before early voting begins ahead of the primary May 4. Polls suggest that the race is in flux with most Democratic voters still undecided. Secretary of State Elaine Marshall holds a small lead over former state Sen. Cal Cunningham, a Lexington lawyer, and Ken Lewis, a Chapel Hill lawyer. Also participating in the debate were Marcus Williams, a Lumberton lawyer, and Ann Worthy, a Gaston County teacher.

The 90-minute debate was broadcast live by NBC-17 in Raleigh and broadcast or webcast in several other markets. It was also sponsored by the League of Women Voters of North Carolina.
