Amanda Cappelletti Declines LWV Debate Invite, But Joins Cooking Event With Mary Jo Daley
Last month, leaders of the League of Women Voters (LWV) of Central Delaware County and Radnor, attempted to organize a Zoom-based debate between Amanda Cappelletti and Daylin Leach, the two candidates vying for the nomination in the 17th District Democratic Primary (June 2). But there will be no debate because Cappelletti declined the LWV invitation (and a request for a comment as to why she did not accept their invitation).
However, voters will have an opportunity to hear from Amanda when she joins Rep. Mary Jo Daley on Friday (May 8) for a “Cooking with the Candidates” event.

Why is she hiding?
She won’t debate Daylin because in a real debate on issues that affect the constituents of this senatorial district and PA in general, she would be exposed as an empty vessel. Her handlers have decided that instead it’s much safer for her to make small talk while scrambling eggs and send out disingenuous revolting mailers, the contents of which were debunked by the PA Senate Investigation. awhile back.
If Amanda declines a debate with a member of her own party how is she ever going to go against Republicans in the Senate Chamber?
She knows she would lose a debate.
