A California Republican hopeful has taken a Hollywood approach to force a 41-year Democratic politician into a debate.
Using special effects, Elizabeth Emken released a YouTube video in which she debates a virtual version of Sen. Dianne Feinstein.
In the video Emken asks questions to the silent virtual version of Feinstein.
Emken instructs then instructs viewers to call Feinstein's office "if you want to see a real debate."
Feinstein, who has repeatedly denied Emken's requests for a debate, walked away from an interview with ABC7 when the reporter asked if it would be better for voters to hear both sides
The Senator's re-election campaign has reportedly said Emkin is not a serious candidate.
