Why do presidential debates matter? We look at history and data to find out.
United States Vice President and Democratic Party nominee Kamala Harris will face off against former President and Republican candidate Donald Trump for their first — and potentially only — presidential debate before November’s election. The two have never met before.
Trump had previously debated President Joe Biden on June 27. Biden subsequently dropped out of the race in July and was replaced by Harris.
The Trump-Harris debate, hosted by ABC News, will take place at 9pm US eastern time on Tuesday (01:00 GMT on Wednesday) at the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
The latest polling data show the two main candidates in the presidential race locked in a near dead heat both nationally and in a series of swing states expected to determine the outcome of the November 5 election.
