White and Keller deal final blows during televised mayoral debate

With early voting opening for the runoff election in less than a week, mayoral candidates incumbent Tim Keller and challenger Darren White rehashed topics like crime, homelessness and the president during an hourlong debate Monday night co-hosted by KOAT-TV, KKOB radio and The Journal.

Keller harked back to projects achieved during his tenure, like the Gateway, a system of homeless shelters, starting construction on the Rail Trail, a pedestrian loop around Downtown and Barelas and the Albuquerque Community Safety department — but spoke little on his vision for the future beyond expanding existing policies.
