Twelve Democratic candidates have taken the stage in Ohio for their fourth debate. They're all vying for the Democratic nomination for president and much has changed since the last time the candidates met: former Vice President Joe Biden and Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., are now co-front-runners; Bernie Sanders suffered a heart attack; the impeachment inquiry against President Donald Trump is in full swing; and more. 

Here are answers to some questions you may be asking ahead of the debate.

Join WRVO on-air and online for live coverage starting at 8 p.m. for this CNN/New York Times Democratic debate, hosted by Audie Cornish. She’ll be joined for analysis from NPR Senior Political Editor and Correspondent Domenico Montanaro and Political Correspondent Asma Khalid.
