The Commission on Presidential Debates on Friday announced the moderators of the three presidential debates, as well as the one vice presidential debate.
Lester Holt, anchor of NBC Nightly News, will moderate the first presidential debate on Sept. 26 in Hempstead, New York.
ABC’s Martha Raddatz and CNN’s Anderson Cooper will moderate the second debate on Oct. 9 in St. Louis.
Chris Wallace of Fox News will moderate the third on Oct. 19 in Las Vegas.
Elaine Quijano, a CBS News correspondent and anchor for the network’s online broadcast platform CBSN, will moderate the lone vice presidential debate on Oct. 4 in Farmville, Virginia.
The selection of Wallace marks the first time a Fox News host has been chosen to moderate a general election presidential debate. Quijano will also be the first anchor of a digital network to moderate a presidential debate.
