PITTSFIELD, Mass. — Ward 6 City Councilor and mayoral candidate Dan Bianchi announces that he will challenge incumbent Mayor James Ruberto to three debates before the Nov. 3 election.

The three debates that Bianchi has challenged Ruberto to participate in are on Monday, Oct. 26, at 8 p.m. at Berkshire Community College hosted by the Pittsfield Gazette; on Thursday, Oct. 29, to air on WUPE Radio hosted by Larry Kratka, and a debate hosted by The Berkshire Eagle at a date to be determined and to which Bianchi has agreed to participate.

"These three debates, along with my aggressive campaign schedule, will provide the citizens of Pittsfield with ample opportunity to hear from each of us about our vision for Pittsfield and make their decision on Election Day accordingly," said Bianchi.

If a scheduling conflict arises between Ruberto and the previously scheduled dates for the debates, Bianchi has offered to work with Ruberto to reschedule the debates at a time that is mutually convenient.

"I look forward to a healthy exchange of ideas over the next several weeks of this campaign," he said. "I also look forward to speaking with the citizens about my vision for moving Pittsfield forward and tackling some of the tough issues that our community faces."
