Rhode Island’s Democratic gubernatorial primary heated up as Governor Dan McKee and challenger Helena Foulkes clashed in a fiery debate, trading blows over housing, the opioid crisis, Flock cameras, and crumbling infrastructure. Foulkes defended her CVS tenure while McKee attacked the company’s role in the epidemic, both sparred over the delayed Washington Bridge project, and weighed in on hot-button bills including minimum wage, voting rights, and end-of-life legislation. McKee’s surprise pause on new Flock cameras added fuel to the fire, as voters get a clearer picture of their contrasting visions for fixing Rhode Island’s roads, bridges, and future — all ahead of a pivotal primary showdown.
