The commission said that each candidate is slated to have two uninterrupted minutes at the start of each 15 minute debate section. During this time, the opposing candidate's microphone will be muted. "Under the agreed upon debate rules, each candidate is to have two minutes of uninterrupted time to make remarks at the beginning of each 15 minute segment of the debate," the commission wrote in a Monday statement. "These remarks are to be followed by a period of open discussion. Both campaigns this week again reaffirmed their agreement to the two-minute, uninterrupted rule."
