PHILADELPHIA — Sparks flew between Republican Gov. Tom Corbett and his Democratic challenger Tom Wolf this morning during their meeting at a Philadelphia TV and radio station.

Corbett and Wolf argued over taxes and school funding during the one-hour “Breakfast with the Candidates” event today at KYW-TV and KYW-AM.

Wolf sought to put Corbett on the defensive on those subjects amid questions from station reporters over what the candidates would say to parents who are upset about the quality of their public schools,

Wolf pledged that parents would see smaller class sizes if he is elected, while Corbett cautioned that he understands that people want more money for schools, but that the state budget is tight right now.

At times the pair talked over each other, or directly challenged each other’s statements.

The election is Nov. 4.
