MIAMI (AP) — Spanish-language Telemundo network will host its first Republican presidential debate in December.
It will be held in Las Vegas and comes weeks before the early primaries begin. Nevada is one of two early primary states with a sizeable and growing number of Latino voters. Florida is the other.
Telemundo announced Thursday that news anchor Jose Diaz-Balart will host the debate. It will be broadcast in Spanish.
The program will cover the economy, health care, education and immigration.
Telemundo is producing the debate with its sister network NBC News. Both are owned by NBC Universal.
Besides being one of America's top Spanish-language news anchors, Diaz-Balart frequently guest-hosts news programs in English on MSNBC. He is also the brother of former and current Florida Republican U.S. Reps. Lincoln and Mario Diaz-Balart.
