HARRISBURG — Republican gubernatorial nominee Scott Wagner says he wants Democratic Gov. Tom Wolf to join him in a town hall-format appearance in each of Pennsylvania’s 67 counties before the November election, although Wolf’s campaign is dismissing it as a “political gimmick.”

Wagner’s campaign floated the idea Tuesday, saying it would allow the candidates to break away from rehearsed campaign-trail answers.

Wolf’s campaign says the governor is already traveling around the state meeting with people. .
