Here is pleted transcript of President Obama and Mitt Romney’s remarks at the first presidential debate in Denver on Oct. 3, 2012. Remarks from the two candidates were updated as the debate unfolded.

LEHRER: Good evening from the Magness Arena at the University of Denver in Denver, Colorado. I’m Jim Lehrer of the “PBS NewsHour,” and I e you to the first of the 2012 presidential debates between President Barack Obama, the Democratic nominee, and former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney, the Republican nominee.
LEHRER: This debate and the next three -- two presidential, one vice presidential -- are sponsored by mission on Presidential Debates. Tonight’s 90 minutes will be about domestic issues and will follow a format designed by mission. There will be six roughly 15-minute segments with two-minute answers for the first question, then open discussion for the remainder of each segment.
Thousands of people offered suggestions on segment subjects or questions via the and other means, but I made the final selections. And for the record, they were not submitted for approval to mission or the candidates.
The segments as I announced in advance will be three on the economy and one each on health care, the role of government and governing, with an emphasis throughout on differences, specifics and choices. Both candidates will also have two-minute closing statements.
The audience here in the hall has promised to remain silent -- no cheers, applause, boos, hisses, among other noisy distracting things, so we may all concentrate on what the candidates have to say. There is a noise exception right now, though, as we e President Obama and Governor Romney.
(APPLAUSE)
Gentlemen, e to you both. Let’s start the economy, segment one, and let’s begin with jobs. What are the major differences between the two of you about how you would go about creating new jobs? (WATCH
