Berman, Sherman to Debate at Ferrahian Armenian School

The two congressmen are both running for the 30th Congressional district.

Reps. Howard Berman and Brad Sherman, both vying for the seat in the newly-formed 30th Congressional District, will hold a debate at Ferrahian Armenian School in Encino Saturday evening. The debate will start at 6 p.m.

Berman and Sherman, both Democratic incumbents in the San Fernando Valley, Berman for Van Nuys and Sherman for Sherman Oaks, have been involved in one of the nation's most high profile Congressional races since the new 30th Congressional district was formed.

After the June 5 primary election, both Berman and Sherman transitioned into a runoff due to the new "top two" election system. The two will now campaign up until the November 6 general election.
