The commission said Wednesday that Lugar and Mourdock, who's Indiana's state treasurer, will debate April 11 at the studios of Indianapolis public television station WFYI.
Mourdock is a tea party favorite who's seeking to deny Lugar a seventh term in the Senate.
The debate commission says April's Senate debate will be the only primary debate it will host before the May 8 primary.
Commission President Max Jones says the commission expects to host as many as five debates this year from the primary through the general election.
