The eighth 2020 Democratic presidential debate will take place tonight in New Hampshire—and it comes after a dramatic week in politics.
Seven of the Democrats vying for the party’s nomination to take on President Donald Trump in the 2020 election will be onstage, just a few days after an Iowa caucus rife with technical issues that have led to a dead heat in the results between Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and Pete Buttigieg.
On top of that, the Senate voted to acquit Trump in its impeachment trial, and the president made a State of the Union speech.
It’s been a busy week.
Here’s what you need to know about, and how to watch, tonight’s 2020 Democratic presidential debate:
