But this sounds like the least they can do:

"During the debate, only the moderator and candidates will be in the studio, which uses robotic cameras, Thomas said. They will be at least 20 feet from one another, he said. Also, plexiglass shields will be on the sides of the desks where the candidates are to be seated."

It doesn't say if it will be televised. Will try to find online.

Go Amy!
