Kim Foxx said 'no' this week to a debate against her Republican opponent in the Cook County state's attorney's race and will not sit on a stage with him at all as she campaigns for reelection.
The incumbent is bowing out of debates because of past editorial board interviews in which each candidate argued their case to be Cook County's top prosecutor, Foxx's spokeswoman Alex Sims wrote in a statement.
