The first of three 2012 presidential debates will be aired live this Wednesday, Oct. 3 from 9 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. ET on the major networks and news channels. Unlike four years ago, you'll also have the option to stream the broadcast live on your computer, phone or tablet.

YouTube will stream the all three presidential debates, and the vice presidential debate, on its Elections Hub. Commentary before and after the debate at the University of Denver will be hosted on all YouTube election partner channels such as ABC, Al JazeeraEnglish, BuzzFeed, Univision and the Wall Street Journal.
