About the upcoming dem debate in Milwaukee? On local tv they reported

that the debate would be in a concert hall at UW-Milwaukee

It seats ~750 They expect ~300 media professionals in the audience. I've never been near a dem debate and am wondering if that is a typical live media presence?

Think of the audiences of TV shows. Tonight, Jeopardy!, etc. A few hundred each, right?
