Obama, Romney agree to Univision forums

The “Meet The Candidate” events, hosted by Univision anchors Jorge Ramos and Maria Elena Salinas in front of live audiences, will “directly address topics of importance to the Hispanic community in Spanish and English,” according to a press release released late Thursday night. The events are being co-sponsored by Facebook; the dates have not been determined.

Univision’s proposition for a forum followed the network’s unsuccessful attempt to lobby the Commission on Presidential Debates for another debate, hosted by Ramos and Salinas, that would address the concerns of Latino voters. Instead, both candidates will appear alone and take questions from the anchors and the audience.
