Wolf Blitzer will moderate the Republican presidential debate on February 25, CNN announced Wednesday.
The debate, hosted by CNN, Telemundo and the Salem Media Group, will take place at the University of Houston two days after Nevada’s Republican caucuses.
Telemundo will carry the debate live in Spanish, and is the only Spanish-language TV network the Republican National Committee has sanctioned to host a debate in the 2016 contest.
Telemundo’s Maria Celeste Arraras, Salem’s conservative talk radio host Hugh Hewitt and CNN’s Chief Political Correspondent Dana Bash will also ask the candidates questions at the debate.
This is slated to be the last Republican debate before Super Tuesday, a packed day on the primary calendar where 12 states will be up for grabs. The focus will likely fall on Texas and the many other southern states that have worked to rebrand the day as the “SEC Primary.”
