Tue Sep 10 14:58:02 UTC 2024: ## Harris and Trump Set to Clash in First Presidential Debate
With less than two months until the November 5th election, Democratic nominee Kamala Harris and Republican incumbent Donald Trump are set to face off in their first presidential debate this Tuesday, September 10th. The highly anticipated event will be hosted by ABC News at the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, a key swing state.
The 90-minute debate will be moderated by ABC News anchors David Muir and Linsey Davis and will be broadcast on major networks including CNN, CBS, Fox News, and NBC.
This will be the first in-person debate between the two candidates, and it will feature a unique format. Candidates will have two minutes to answer each question, followed by a two-minute rebuttal and an additional minute for follow-up. There will be no opening statements, and only the moderators will be allowed to ask questions.
The debate is expected to touch on a variety of topics, though ABC News has not yet revealed the specific questions.
This is the final presidential debate before the election, but a vice-presidential debate is scheduled for October 1st, where Harris’s running mate, Tim Walz, will face off against Trump’s running mate, JD Vance.
With the stakes high and the election looming, the first debate between Harris and Trump is sure to be a pivotal moment in the race for the White House.
