NJ Senate Debate
The only New Jersey Senate debate, between Jeff Bell and Cory Booker, was held on Friday.

TRENTON, NJ (WABC) -- The only New Jersey senatorial debate was held in Trenton on Friday. Democratic incumbent Cory Booker and Republican challenger Frank Bell were divided on many issues. They debated same sex marriage and the best way to handle Ebola. They each blamed each other for the current grid lock in Washington.

Senator Booker won a special election last year to finish out the term of the late Senator Frank Lautenberg.

Frank Bell recently moved back from Virginia to run in this election.

WABC anchor Sade Baderinwa co-moderated the debate which will air on Channel 7 on Sunday.
