"How would I need them in order to win, ma'am?" Porter, considered by many to be the frontrunner in the race, responded.

"Well, unless you think you're going to get 60% of the vote," the reporter, asking about the voter breakdown of Democrats and Republicans in the state, said before Porter started laughing. 

"So you don't need them to win," Watts asked Porter.

"I feel like this is unnecessarily argumentative," Porter said, prompting the reporter to point out that she had asked the same question to the other candidates in the race and they answered it.  

"I don't want to keep doing this, I'm going to call it," Porter said. 

"You're not going to do the interview?" Watts said as Porter tried to remove her microphone. 

"Nope, not like this I'm not, not with seven follow-ups to every single question you ask," Porter responded. 

When Watts reminded Porter that every candidate had answered the question, Porter said, "I don't care."

Porter told Watts after being pressed even more that she doesn't "want to have an unhappy experience with you" and that she doesn't "want this all on camera."

Fox News Digital reached out to Porter's campaign for comment.
