Candidate Debate at Monomoy High School
HARWICH -- CNN and Fox News have nothing on Monomoy High.
The Senior AP Government Studies class hosted a Cape and Islands Senate seat debate Tuesday that featured all five candidates, Republicans and Democrats. That’s something neither news channel ever pulled off and the debate ran smooth and sharp with candidates limited to one-minute answers. That led to too many queries and answers to go into here but Democrats Julian Cyr, Sheila Lyons and Brian Mannal and Republicans Anthony Schiavi and Jim Crocker all got a chance to make their points.

Ben deRuyter endorses Julian Cyr
TRURO — A little more than a week after withdrawing from the Cape & Islands District state Senate race, Benjamin deRuyter threw his support behind fellow Democrat Julian Cyr.
Cyr, of Truro, who left his job as a policy director at the state Department of Public Health to pursue his campaign, announced the endorsement Tuesday.
“I think Julian and I represent a new generation of leaders here on the Cape, at a particularly important time when we have a rapidly aging population,” deRuyter said. “I’m interested in seeing this seat remain with the Democratic Party. When I look at the field of candidates, I believe Julian is the most well positioned to succeed in the general election."
