Site: Washington University, St. Louis, MO
Moderator: Gwen Ifill
Staging/Answer Format: Debate will consist of both foreign and domestic policy questions asked by the moderator. Format will be similar to the presidential debates.

All four debates will begin at 9pm ET, 6pm PT and last for 90 minutes. Both campaigns also agreed to accept the CPD’s participation rules for third-party candidate participation. Third-party candidates will be included if they poll 15% or above in at least 5 national polls.

Each debate will be broadcast on the major broadcast networks, including CBS, NBC, ABC, and FOX. They will also be aired on cable news channels such as CNN, MSNBC, Fox News, and C-SPAN. 

We will also show the Vice Presidential Debate (oh yeah!) at the State on
Thursday, October 2, and the second Presidential Debate on Tuesday, October
7! All of the debates start at 9 p.m. and all are 90 minutes long. All are
welcome, and again the tickets are FREE.
