FL's Democratic Candidates For Gov. Debate Before Primary

The Democratic candidates for Florida governor have taken the stage together for the final time before this month's primary election.  

Billionaire Jeff Greene, former Miami Beach mayor Philip Levine, Tallahassee Mayor Andrew Gillum, Orlando-area businessman Chris King and former Congresswoman Gwen Graham debated each other in Palm Beach County Thursday night.  

Each candidate discussed his or her stance on issues ranging from gun control to education and the minimum wage.  

King and Levine criticized Greene for calling President Donald Trump a "great guy" in an interview after the 2016 presidential election.  

All five candidates said they would work to repeal Florida's "Stand Your Ground Law."  

Graham said she would ban assault weapons in Florida, and Gillum talked about his track record of standing up to the National Rifle Association.  

All five are trying to become Florida's first Democratic governor since 1999.
