TV Debate in Calif. Recall Will Be for the Chosen Few

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 14 -- The top-polling candidates in the California recall election will be invited to a single debate hosted by the state's broadcasters next month, giving voters here perhaps their only chance to see the field vying to replace Gov. Gray Davis (D) mix it up together on live television.

Alas, it will be no free-for-all among the 135 candidates who have won a place on the unprecedented ballot. To be invited to the Sept. 17 face-off, the candidates must demonstrate at least 10 percent support in any of three major polls to be taken before the 90-minute moderated round table discussion at the California State University in Sacramento.

The debate will most likely have six or so candidates -- but no Davis. He will not be invited; instead he will be offered a chance to tape a message to be aired separately.
