It's On

Bernie and Hillary in Brooklyn 14 April at 2100EDT:

Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton have finally agreed to have a high-stakes debate in Brooklyn on April 14 starting at 9 p.m., five days before New York Democrats vote in the April 19 primary.

The debate will be held at the Duggal Greenhouse on the Brooklyn Navy Yard, hosted by CNN and moderated by Wolf Blitzer. CNN chief political correspondent Dana Bash and NY1 political anchor Errol Louis will join in the questioning of the candidates. The debate will also be covered by NY 1, which serves the New York Metropolitan Area.

Brooklyn is an auspicious place for the two candidates to meet, as Sanders grew up in Brooklyn, and Clinton’s campaign headquarters is in downtown Brooklyn. This will be the first debate between the two candidates since the Univision-Washington Post debate in Miami on March 9.

I will be watching.
