Harris can win by letting her attackers "fall into their own trap"

It's time for our daily chat with KCBS Insider Phil Matier. Phil joins KCBS Radio's Patti Reising and Bret Burkhart to discuss the Mayoral debate tonight.

All of the candidates running for Mayor of San Francisco are set to square off in a debate next hour, except for one. Mayor London Breed pulled out of the event last week, blaming one of the sponsors, the Examiner, for not keeping in touch with her campaign—saying she has other events already scheduled. The Examiner disputes that—claiming it has a chain of emails.
