Sen. David Vitter was the major target at a televised debate tonight featuring all four of the major gubernatorial candidates: Vitter, Public Service Commissioner Scott Angelle, state Rep. John Bel Edwards and Lt. Gov. Jay Dardenne. Also on the dais were two minor candidates: Democrat Cary Deaton of Metairie and the Rev. Jeremy Odom of Natchitoches (no party).

The hourlong event, held at WDSU-TV and moderated by Scott Walker, was heavily focused on social issues ? the first 10 minutes were spent on Kim Davis, the Kentucky clerk who refused to issue same-sex marriage licenses, another 10 minutes were spent on marijuana (medical and recreational), while the national Planned Parenthood controversy took up more time.?
