Date Set for Dems to Debate in Des Moines

The Democratic National Committee has announced dates and locations for six sanctioned presidential debates including in Des Moines on August 19th which will be broadcast on ABC. August 19th is also the last day of the Iowa State Fair--so it is likely that there will be many candidate sightings then.

The full debate schedule:

June 3 at St. Anselm College in Manchester, N.H.

July 23, Charleston, S.C., televised by CNN.

Aug. 19, Des Moines, Iowa, televised by ABC.

Sept. 26, Hanover, N.H., televised by MSNBC/NBC.

Oct. 30, Philadelphia, televised by MSNBC/NBC.

Nov. 15, Las Vegas, televised by CNN.

Dec. 10, Los Angeles, televised by CBS.

With the candidates each fielding dozens of debate requests, the DNC agreed earlier this year to sanction one per month beginning in July.
