Both debates will be streamed online for free.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The DNC also announced the qualification criteria for candidates\u2019 participation in the first two debates &#8211; a two-path system that employs both a polling threshold and a grassroots fundraising threshold, and uses the two measures in combination in the event that more than 20 candidates qualify.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cAs Chair of the DNC, I am committed to running an open and transparent primary process. \u00a0To that end, we\u2019ve spent months working with media partners to provide this unprecedented opportunity for candidates and voters to get to know each other,&#8221; Perez said.\u00a0 &#8220;Because campaigns are won on the strength of their grassroots, we also updated the threshold, giving all types of candidates the opportunity to reach the debate stage and giving small-dollar donors a bigger voice in the primary than ever before.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>DETAILS ON MEDIA PARTNERS:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The DNC will partner with NBC News, MSNBC and Telemundo to host the first debate of the 2020 Democratic presidential primary process. The debate will be broadcast simultaneously on all three networks, with real-time Spanish translations on Telemundo, in prime time on back-to-back weeknights in June.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> The debate will also be streamed for free on NBC News\u2019 digital platforms including NBCNews.com, MSNBC.com, NBC News Mobile App, and OTT apps in addition to Telemundo\u2019s digital platforms.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The July debate will be broadcast by CNN in prime time on back-to-back weeknights if more than one night is needed. The debate will also be available for free online and streamed on a variety of digital platforms. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Both agreements are unprecedented &#8211; \u00a0no debate has ever aired in prime time on back-to-back nights before.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Location, venue, moderators, date and time, format and logistics of the first and second debates will be announced at a later date.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>DETAILS ON THRESHOLD FOR PARTICIPATION:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Democratic candidates may qualify for the first and second debate by meeting one of the two following sets of criteria:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Polling Method: Register 1% or more support in three polls (which may be national polls, or polls in Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina, and\/or Nevada) publicly released between January 1, 2019, and 14 days prior to the date of the Organization Debate.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Qualifying polls will be limited to those sponsored by one or more of the following organizations\/institutions:Associated Press, ABC News, CBS News, CNN, Des Moines Register, Fox News, Las Vegas Review Journal, Monmouth University, NBC News, New York Times, National Public Radio (NPR), Quinnipiac University, Reuters, University of New Hampshire, Wall Street Journal, USA Today, Washington Post, Winthrop University. \u00a0Any candidate\u2019s three qualifying polls must be conducted by different organizations, or if by the same organization, must be in different geographical areas.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Grassroots Fundraising Method.
