Incumbent state Sen. Jamie Eldridge (D-Acton) and his Republican challenger in the November election, Dean Cavaretta of Stow, will square off in an October debate hosted by Patch and ActonTV.

The live debate will be held in ActonTV studios on Wednesday, Oct. 17, at 7:30 p.m. and will be live-streamed/live-blogged on Acton Patch, Sudbury Patch, Marlborough Patch, Westborough Patch, and Northborough Patch, as well as broadcast live on ActonTV, Comcast Channels 8, 9, & 99
