CNN anchors Jake Tapper and Dana Bash will moderate the debate, which will be conducted in a closed studio without a live audience.
CNN’s political director, David Chalian, emphasized that the moderators’ role will be to facilitate the debate rather than participate actively.
This debate is significant as it is the first in over three decades not organized by the nonpartisan Commission on Presidential Debates and features two commercial breaks during its 90-minute duration.
