CNN announced on Tuesday that it will host two nights of town halls featuring Republican presidential candidates five weeks before the Iowa Republican Caucuses in 2024.
Jake Tapper will be moderating a live CNN Republican Presidential Town Hall with Governor Ron DeSantis at 9 pm ET on Tuesday, December 12. The event will occur at Grand View University in Des Moines, Iowa.
Meanwhile, the following evening, anchor Abby Phillip will moderate a live CNN Republican Presidential Town Hall with Vivek Ramaswamy at 9 pm ET on Wednesday, December 13, from Grand View University in Des Moines, Iowa.
“CNN has a longstanding tradition of hosting presidential candidates for Town Halls and political events as a critical component of the network’s robust campaign coverage,” the press release said.
“The 2024 Republican presidential candidates will take questions from CNN moderators and a live audience of Iowa voters who say they intend to vote in the Iowa Republican Caucuses.”
The two-night event will stream live on CNN Max and for pay TV subscribers via CNN.com, connected TV, and mobile apps.
