How is sitting in the audience trying to make a debate happen?

I'm trying to read the NBC News article, "Kari Lake was booted from Arizona town hall audience before Hobbs took the stage/The scene, which took place a forum that has yet to air, is emblematic of the contrasting styles of the two candidates in Arizona's tight race for governor." 

I have no quarrel with the headline — other than that "booted" suggests physical resistance to removal — but the text is slanted. It begins:

Democrat Katie Hobbs won’t debate her opponent in Arizona’s race for governor, yet Republican Kari Lake tried to make it happen at a candidate town hall that organizers say she disrupted.

Before describing exactly what Lake did, we're pushed to regard it as disruption. And we're told Lake "tried to make [a debate] happen," so I'm picturing Lake getting on the stage and attempting to argue with Hobbs.

Under the agreed-upon rules for the pre-recorded event, which was taped Monday and airs at 7 p.m. Saturday Arizona time, the candidates were not supposed to be onstage at the same time and Hobbs was supposed to go first.

Again, we're pushed to think that Lake got on the stage with Hobbs, and we're told that would violate the specific rules that Lake had agreed to.

But a problem arose before Hobbs even took the stage...

You can't violate the rule against being on stage with the other person if that other person isn't even on the stage. But, more importantly....

Lake was sitting in the front row, in a direct line of sight at where her opponent would sit.

Lake wasn't even on the stage! That should have been revealed in the first paragraph: Lake wasn't on the stage and there was no agreed-upon rule that Lake violated. Lake sat in the audience. Or had they agreed to a rule against sitting in the audience?

As a crowd of more than 200 watched, organizers said Lake was supposed to be in a hold room under the rules, a copy of which they refused to provide to NBC News.

You know what you presume when a document won't be shown to you? The document doesn't support what the withholder of the document is trying to use it to mean. Who were "the organizers"? They've been referred to twice now. They don't sound neutral.

Lake protested, saying she was unaware of that rule and said Hobbs should come out and debate her. Hobbs didn’t.

If you want to prove Lake must have known the rule, you've got to at least establish that there was a rule. Lake chose to do a little demonstration that would forefront her opponent's refusal to debate. Now, her opponent — or the "organizers" — would like to deflect attention and get the focus on Lake's disrespect for rules and decorum. 

After several minutes, Lake complied, leaving behind her campaign surrogate, Mexican telenovela star Eduardo Verástegui....

Okay, my attention got deflected onto this photo I found when I googled this name I'd never run into before:

 

Apparently, this lady, Kari Lake, has the handsomest man in the world as her "surrogate." If you're bent on hogging attention in the front row of an event, would you intentionally sit next to this man?! He is so good looking that I would think it vastly overshadows anything Hobbs might say or whatever the difference between Hobbs and Lake happens to be. It doesn't matter that Lake is removed from the scene, if everyone has seen that Verástegui is allied with her, and Verástegui remains. It's utterly perfect for Lake.

“Kari Lake brought along a Mexican telenovela star and she brought the drama. It was like a telenovela,” said Joe Garcia, an independent voter and the executive director of voter outreach for the group Chicanos Por La Causa Action Fund..... “She rattled her opponent. She was big, brash, and very larger than life, Trump-esque. Anyone who thinks she was there to follow all the rules doesn’t know Kari Lake.”...

Was there also a rule against telenovela stars in the audience? How many rules does Katie Hobbs need to avoid getting rattled? And how can Hobbs benefit from this kind of coverage? A male supporter jumps to support her by saying she got "rattled"?!

Lake has repeatedly called Hobbs a “coward” for her refusal to share the debate stage and points out that Hobbs also refused to debate Democratic primary rivals.

If you don't debate, that kind of argument is inevitable. It's so predictable that maybe you need some sort of stunt on top of it, but Lake's sitting in the audience and then leaving when she was told it was against the rules wasn't much of a stunt. Getting Verástegui sitting with her, however... that was hilariously great. 

And there was no basis for kicking him out too, was there? Some implied rule against overly beautiful people in the front row?
