Bergen County's own Dana Bash, CNN's chief political correspondent, will be front and center co-moderating Thursday's first presidential debate between President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump. The debate, held at CNN's studios in Atlanta, will be the first time either candidate has been on a debate stage since 2020. She later moderated the second Democratic presidential primary debate in Detroit in 2019, which lasted for two days. Both candidates accepted CNN's invite in May to host the debate and agreed to the network's format and a set of rules, according to CNN. A second presidential debate is slated for Sept. 10 on ABC.
