The town halls will air in primetime from the campus of Saint Anselm College on February 5 and 6 and provide the candidates an opportunity to deliver their closing arguments to the "first-in-the-nation" primary voters.
The candidates will appear in back-to-back hours and take questions directly from the audience and a CNN moderator. The town halls will air on CNN, CNN en Español, CNN International, CNN Airport Network, and stream on CNN.com, CNN OTT apps for AppleTV, Roku, Amazon Fire, Samsung SmartTV, and Android TV, and CNN Mobile apps for iOS and Android, CNN's SiriusXM Channels, and the Westwood One Radio Network.

A network spokesperson said invitations will be extended to candidates who qualify to participate in the Democratic National Committee-sanctioned debate, scheduled to take place on February 7, 2020. The deadline to qualify to participate in a CNN New Hampshire town hall, the spokesperson noted, was 11:59 p.m. ET on February 4. Deval Patrick, who has not yet qualified for the February 7 debate, was offered an opportunity to participate in a CNN New Hampshire town hall, as part of the network's commitment to hosting individual town halls with the Democratic presidential candidates, the spokesperson added.

I had forgotten about this.

That passion he has for this subject needs to come through for other issues. That passion needs to come through when he explains why he feels he should be President. If he does that he has a chance to get back to the front of the race.

primary today, I would vote for:

The most meaningless candidate to have for a town hall.

He's barely even a candidate.
