Univision’s request for an official presidential debate may have been rejected, but the Spanish language network has succeeded in securing both candidates’ attendance at “Meet the Candidate” forums, the network said. President Barack Obama and former-Gov. Mitt Romney will sit down on separate nights for a question-and-answer session moderated by Univision’s Jorge Ramos and Maria Elena Salinas. The sessions will take place in front of a live audience and will most likely air on a delay with Spanish-language translation, a Univision spokeswoman said. The dates of the interviews have not yet been determined.
