The debate will occur less than a week before elector in the state head to the polls for the popular primary quill .
Besides Apple , Twitter is also hosting a Democratic debate , on February 25 in Charleston , South Carolina . Two other public debate — one on January 14 , another on February 19 — are also now on the schedule .

This will be the first clock time Apple News will host any political argument , and it ’s difficult to encompass why one of the world ’s most recognizable brand and a company with passel of hard cash would opt to muddy up its glint brand with something so miserable and decayed as American politics in 2020 .
The obvious solvent is , it ’s trying to elevate itsstrugglingApple News+subscription service out from the stagnancy of comparative obscurity and equate Apple News with Very Serious Democracy Things . But give the Democratic candidates’souring rhetoricon Big Tech and President Donald Trump ’s penchant for absorb anything near his political enemy into a suppuration hell of nonsensical attack , the whole could backfire . Or , perhaps more potential , nobody will pay tending to the co - horde of a primary debate , and we ’ll all leave this ever bechance .
We ’ve extend to out to Apple for remark and will update when we try back .
