The CNBC GOP presidential debate takes place on Wednesday night as the top 10 frontrunners in the Republican race clash for a third time on national TV. The main debate has a start time of 8 p.m. ET and will be broadcast on CNBC.
CNBC's Carl Quintanilla, Becky Quick and John Harwood will moderate the debate tonight, and they have said they will be trying to dig deeper into the details of the candidates policies rather than allow the debate to be sidetracked by more superficial interactions.
Quick has said ahead of the debate: "We're going to go a little deeper into detail and specifics. I want to try to pin these candidates down on the specifics of their policies, rather than hearing that they like puppies and apple pie," according to CNN.
