Mike Munger will be at a debate in October.

The Libertarian candidate for governor has been invited to a debate at Queens University in Charlotte in early October with the Republican and Democratic candidates.

It will the final statewide debate for the nominees. According to Munger, it is the first time that a Libertarian gubernatorial candidate has been allowed to debate.

In an e-mail to Dome, Munger joked that he was disappointed by the invitation, since it upended his plans for his fall campaign.

"The entire strategy of the Munger for Governor campaign was built on a single premise: Cry and whine like a French soccer player over being kept out of the debates," he writes.

He adds that he planned to use this potential chilipunking to "obtain sympathy, and contributions."
