Some of the RNC's complaints listed in its letter include: * holding the first debate after early voting had begun; * accusing the commission of "making unilateral changes to previously agreed-upon debate formats and conditions, in some cases without even notifying the candidates"; * "selecting a moderator who had once worked for the Democrat nominee, a glaring conflict of interest"; * the CPD's failure "to maintain the organization's strict nonpartisanship, with a majority of its Board Members publicly disparaging the Republican nominee."
