CHICAGO (AP) - The last time Gov. Pat Quinn and Comptroller Dan Hynes debated, the two Democratic candidates for governor were on the attack and gave their Republican rivals plenty of material.

The two are set to meet again Wednesday in two debates.

The primary rivals first go up against each other at the Union League Club of Chicago.

Then, they meet again in a heath care debate as part of the Campaign for Better Health Care's annual meeting.

The incumbent Quinn is trying to get elected to a four-year term of his own after replacing ousted former Gov. Rod Blagojevich in January.

Hynes will try to stop him in the Feb. 2 Democratic primary. The winner will face one of the seven Republicans vying for the governor's post.
