Link for Biden's virtual town hall, starting at 6 pm CT

Editing again to explain that the virtual town hall didn't work very well, due to technical problems. See the replies below, including links to tweets from journalists.

This is the link set up hours ago by PBS NewsHour, when they were expecting a 4 pm start time, before the town hall was rescheduled.

I hope this link works. It's the only one I've been able to find so far.

That was my next place to look.

Edit: I rechecked the Facebook link. It say's that the town hall starts at 6:45 central time. Maybe they moved back the start time. I'll check both links at that time.

Scroll past the videos and photos. It's the second posting. It has a message that it's going live and then flashes 0:00.

I see the post from March 10 after Biden's primary wins, and then a Join Team Joe post directly below that. The virtual town hall post had been between those two.
