Lott and Gurm are small business owners and both previously served in City Hall as staffers.
The one-hour forum produced lively debate and, at times, sharp exchanges.

The district includes central Fresno and parts of East Fresno.
The candidates advanced out of the June primary with Gurm edging Lott by just 20 votes — 3,099 to 3,079.
