- The debates will air June 26 and 27. W-TH on NBC and Telemundo affiliates across the country, along with MSNBC on cable.

POLITICO. 2020 Elections. DNC, "NBC announce first debate lineups." The field of 20 candidates has been randomly split into two groups of 10 debaters on back-to-back nights later this month. By ZACH MONTELLARO and CHRISTOPHER CADELAGO, 06/14/2019 12:41 PM EDT | Updated 06/14/2019 04:03 PM EDT

The Democratic National Committee announced the lineups for the first party-sanctioned presidential debates, after a random drawing Friday in New York. Former Vice President Joe Biden, the top-polling candidate, will appear on June 27, the second of back-to-back nights of debates in Miami. He will be joined on the stage by Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) and South Bend (Ind.) Mayor Pete Buttigieg — but not Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), another top contender, who will debate nine other hopefuls on June 26.
