Presidential Debates

CNN has sent invitations to both presidential candidates, Vice President Kamala Harris and Donald Trump. Vice President Harris has accepted the invitation, saying that “I believe we owe it to the voters.” Trump has stated it Trump has stated ‘it is too late’ to have another debate. However. Trump has changed his mind many times before.

SECOND PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE

To view the full debate, please visit link below:
Video – YouTube

Date | Time:
Tuesday, September 10, 2024 | TBA

Hosted By:
ABC

To Qualify:
Candidates must receive at least
15% in four national polls of registered or
likely voters that meet ABC’s standards.
Candidates must also accept ABC News’ rules for the debate.

Moderators:
David Muir and Linsey Davis

Additional Information:

In order to participate, Trump and Harris must reach at least 15% support in four separate national polls of registered or likely voters, ABC News said in a news release Friday. The same goes for third-party candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., though his approval numbers have largely hovered around half that percentage, and he did not qualify for the first debate held by CNN.

Along with meeting the Constitution’s requirements to serve as president and already filing a Statement of Candidacy with the Federal Election Commission, participants must appear on a “sufficient number” of state ballots to attain a majority of electoral votes in the presidential election.

THIRD PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE

Vice President Harris has accepted the invitation.
Trump has stated ‘it is too late’ to have another debate.
However. Trump has changed his mind many times before.

Date | Time:
Wednesday, October 23, 2024 | TBA

Hosted By:
CNN

To Qualify:

The October debate would mirror the first 2024 presidential debate in June
between Trump and President Joe Biden, taking place at CNN’s studios in Atlanta.
Trump and Harris would field moderators’ questions for 90 minutes
without a live studio audience.

Moderators:
