Challenger Lynn Wheat invites Bobbie Singh-Allen to Elk Grove mayoral policy forum

Challenger says "I hope you are supportive of this opportunity for the public to meet the candidates"
The email said the following:
Mayor Singh-Allen,
As a mayoral candidate, I would like to invite you to participate in a public forum moderated by the primary news outlets that cover Elk Grove.
I propose that we conduct the forum one early evening of the week between September 30 – October 7th. There has not been a proper candidates forum in Elk Grove since before COVID and I believe the voters would appreciate the opportunity to get better acquainted with their Mayoral candidates.
I have forwarded a copy of this invitation to the Sacramento Bee, Elk Grove Citizen, and Elk Grove News to help coordinate the logistics that this event would require. I hope you are supportive of this opportunity for the public to meet the candidates and vice versa.
Could you please reply back to me by September 10th so we can start planning?
Sincerely,
Lynn Wheat

No further details of when and where the forum could be held were made available, but the email said Wheat and Singh-Allen could agree to terms.
Singh-Allen has a large social media following, about a quarter million dollars in campaign funds and is the presumed front runner. Wheat has a commanding knowledge of policy and a forum could exposed Singh-Allen's policy weaknesses thus making it unlikely she would agree to expose her vulnerabilities.

That's a great idea. Good for Lynn for taking the initiative.
For Bobbie, it's all about the Benjamins and feeding her war chest for a run at a House congressional seat in 2026! Elk Grove is just a placeholder and to her, Ms. Wheat is just another horsefly at the Elk Grove Zoo!
Open debates are what democracy is all about. My bet is that BSA will refuse to speak to the issues as she’s been a dumpster fire since taking office. Lynn is well educated on EG issues and could expose her numerous shortcomings. Well Madame Mayor, up for a debate or too scared?
It’s been six days and the mayor has yet to respond to the challenge?? It seems she’s scared of how she might be exposed in a public forum considering her poor judgements costing tax payers millions. BSA’s failure to accept speaks volumes of her poor performance. Time for new blood on the dais.
