Seven Republican candidates for president are set to take the stage in Manchester, N.H., for a debate Monday evening that will include questions asked by moderators, posed by live panels of voters, and submitted via Twitter and Facebook.

The two-hour debate, sponsored by CNN and The Union Leader newspaper and WMUR-TV in Manchester, N.H., begins at 8 p.m. Eastern time. The Caucus will be live blogging the full two hours, so come back to nytimes.com just before the debate starts and bring your comments and observations.

John King, a CNN anchor, will moderate the debate and field questions from New Hampshire journalists. But according to a CNN news release, the candidates will have to answer questions from ordinary New Hampshire voters, as well.

?The debate will feature questions from New Hampshire voters inside the debate hall and potentially from town hall locations in Hancock, Plymouth, and Rochester, N.H.,? the release reads.

In 2007, CNN and YouTube held a debate that included video questions submitted over the Internet. This year, questions can be posted to Twitter, the CNN Politics blog and Mr. King?s Facebook page.

On stage this evening will be: Mitt Romney, the former governor of Massachusetts; Tim Pawlenty, the former governor of Minnesota; Newt Gingrich, the former speaker of the House; Representative Michele Bachmann of Minnesota; Representative Ron Paul of Texas; Herman Cain, former chief executive of Godfather?s Pizza; and Rick Santorum, the former senator from Pennsylvania.
