The third and final scheduled debate between Ohio gubernatorial candidates Mike DeWine and Richard Cordray took place Monday night at Cleveland State University.

The pair sparred over insurance protections for people with pre-existing conditions, each saying the other has misrepresented the issue.

DeWine is Ohio’s attorney general. He says Cordray’s ads saying he opposes protections for pre-existing conditions are misleading. He says a person with a family as large as his has a good understanding of health care issues, and he pointed to his lawsuit against the drug companies.

Cordray, the former federal consumer watchdog, says he anticipated the answer and is releasing a letter on his website highlighting DeWine’s lawsuit against the Affordable Care Act on his first day in office.

Cleveland State University hosted the event after DeWine and Cordray previously held debates at the University of Dayton and Marietta College.

The two are in a tight race race to succeed term-limited Republican Gov. John Kasic
