OCTOBER 17, 2014 — Beginning next week, “Meet the Press” moderator and NBC News political director Chuck Todd will hit the campaign trail in an RV to “Meet the Voters” on a road trip through key battleground states.

On Tuesday, October 21, Chuck will moderate a U.S. Senate debate in New Hampshire between Democratic incumbent Jeanne Shaheen and Republican Scott Brown. The event — hosted by NECN, the Concord Monitor, and the University of New Hampshire — will be broadcast live on NECN and live streamed at necn.com beginning at 8pm ET.

Following the debate, Chuck will travel to Kansas (Wednesday), Iowa (Thursday), and Wisconsin (Friday) — three of the highest-profile Senate and gubernatorial races defining the 2014 midterm election.  Along the way, he’ll meet with voters from across America to discuss their views on the big issues defining local political battles.  His reporting will be featured on all platforms of NBC News, including “Meet the Press,” “TODAY,” “NBC Nightly News,” and NBCNews.com.

Chuck will then return to Washington for Sunday’s “Meet the Press” before heading back out on the road for the final week leading up to the election.  Stay tuned for the second week’s travel plans as other key races across the country heat up or fizzle out.
