CNN and Telemundo will host the debate, making it the first sponsored by the Republican National Committee to air on a Spanish-language network. The debate will stream online, without requiring a cable subscription. Real estate mogul Donald Trump, Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson and Ohio Gov. John Kasich will debate from Houston, Texas, with moderators CNN’s Wolf Blitzer and María Celeste Arrarás of Telemundo. The debate will air Feb. 25 at 8:30 p.m. EST and will stream live at [go.cnn.com](http://go.cnn.com "undefined") and on [Telemundo.com](http://Telemundo.com "undefined"). After victories in South Carolina and Nevada, Trump remains the frontrunner. For now, the other candidates have mostly trained their fire on each other in hopes of narrowing the race to two candidates. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4235988/republican-debate-houston-telemundo-gop-how-watch/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4235988/republican-debate-houston-telemundo-gop-how-watch/"},"headline":"How to Watch Tonight's Republican Presidential Debate","datePublished":"2016-02-25T14:00:23.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-22T15:20:44.049Z","description":"The last GOP debate before the Super Tuesday primaries","url":"https://time.com/4235988/republican-debate-houston-telemundo-gop-how-watch/","keywords":["Debates","republicans","2016 Election topic","Sen.
