MSNBC announced Sunday that it will hold a Democratic presidential debate Thursday, Feb. 4, in New Hampshire ahead of the first-in-the-nation primary.

The debate will take place at the University of New Hampshire in Durham at 9 p.m. Eastern and be moderated by Chuck Todd and Rachel Maddow. All three Democratic presidential candidates, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont and former Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley are expected to attend.

The Democratic National Committee, which has been under pressure from voters and candidates to add more debates to the primary schedule, has said the debate will be sanctioned and is moving towards sanctioning additional debates with the agreement of the candidates.

Gov. O’Malley will not participate.

9. I just read that Bernie has only agreed

to that debate,
a)if DWS sanctions it

b) if 3 more debates are scheduled, one
of the in NYC.

As of now I have not heard anything about
the decision from the DNC.

11. Bernie drew Hillary into three more debates. She didn't want anymore ...

After the last one, I understand why.
