This Wednesday’s debate between President Barack Obama and challenger Mitt Romney kicks off a series of presidential debate broadcasts this campaign season. VPR will be broadcasting NPR’s full coverage on Wednesday, October 3 beginning at 9 p.m.

Guy Raz will host for the broadcast.  Immediately following the debate, you’ll hear analysis from NPR Senior Washington editor Ron Elving, political analysts E.J. Dionne and Matt Continetti, with input from NPR campaign reporters.

In addition to Wednesday’s debate, VPR is expecting to air three more presidential debates on October 11, 16, and 22.
