In the race to replace retiring Ohio Republican Sen. Rob Portman, Republican J.D. Vance and Democratic Rep. Tim Ryan announced that they have agreed to upcoming debates, but there are conflicting details about when and where the events will take place.

Ryan released a statement last week saying that he will participate in debates on Sept. 26 hosted by WFMJ-TV in Youngstown at Stambaugh Auditorium, on Oct. 4 coordinated by Cincinnati-based WLWT-TV at Parrish Auditorium on Miami University’s Hamilton Campus, and on Oct. 12 at the Akron-Summit County Public Library.
