Another Democratic presidential debate is in the books. This time, there were 12 candidates on stage in Westerville, Ohio. This was the first appearance of billionaire Tom Steyer, who lives in San Francisco. Steyer has been a climate activist and has been promoting the impeachment of President Donald Trump for years.  

CapRadio’s Politifact Reporter Chris Nichols fact checks statements made during the debate by California Sen. Kamala Harris. He also compares positions she has taken as a candidate with those she took as California’s Attorney General. Chris also fact checks Tom Steyer’s first debate performance and shares fact checks done by Politifact’s national office in Washington, DC.
