In their first debate in a nail-biter of a state Senate race, incumbent Sen. Wendy Davis, D-Fort Worth, and state Rep. Mark Shelton, R-Fort Worth, traded barbs on legislative ethics in a spirited debate on everything from school financing to federal health reform. We tweeted the ins and outs of the forum, which you can follow in the Storify below.

Wendy Davis does not support your second amendment rights. If you value your right to own a gun then you should vote against Davis.

Wendy is nothing more then a Obama mouth piece she will say and do anything to get reelected. I think mark will do right by Texans so avoid Wendy and Obama and Elect Mark.
