Ryan's Democratic challenger for congressional seat wants to debate

KENOSHA (WKOW) -- The man who's challenging Paul Ryan for his congressional seat wants to schedule a debate.

Ryan has been named the nominee for Vice President for the Republicans, but he's still on the ballot for his seat in the U.S. House. The Democrat on the ballot is Rob Zerban, a former Kenosha County board member who owns a catering company.

Zerban's campaign says several groups have offered to sponsor a pair of debates. Zerban has accepted both invitations, but his campaign says it's concerned because Ryan's campaign hasn't responded to either.

A message left with Ryan's campaign was not immediately returned.

If Ryan wins both races, there will be a special election held to fill the congressional seat.
