Presidential & VP debates scheduled
September 26, 2020

There will be two Presidential debates, one debate for VP candidates, and one Presidential Town Hall in the upcoming weeks before the November 3rd General Election.

Thursday, September 29 – Presidential Debate, Cleveland, Ohio
Wednesday, October 7 – VP Debate, University of Utah, Salt Lake City
Thursday, October 15 – Presidential Town Hall, Miami Florida
Thursday, October 22 – Presidential Debate, Nashville, Tennessee


The first Presidential Debate between current President Donald Trump and Democratic challenger former VP Joe Biden will be on Tuesday, September 29th. It will begin at 9PM ET and run for 90 minutes without commercial interruption. This debate will be at Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, Ohio with "Fox News Sunday" anchor Chris Wallace as moderator. Topics will be:
• The Trump and Biden Records
• The Supreme Court
• COVID-19
• The Economy
• Race and Violence in our Cities
• The Integrity of the Election

The sole Vice Presidential debate will be on Wednesday, October 7 between Vice President Mike Pence and Democratic challenger, Senator Kamala Harris. It will take place at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City. The moderator will be Susan Page of USA Today. The debate will be 90 minutes in length, with Harris and Pence tackling nine segments of approximately 10 minutes each.

The second face-off between the two Presidential candidates will be on Thursday, October 15th at the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts in Miami, Florida. Steve Scully of C-SPAN will be the moderator. This will be a town-hall style event in which the questions will be posed by citizens from the South Florida area. The candidates will have two minutes to respond to each question and there will be an additional minute for the moderator to facilitate further discussion. The town meeting participants will be uncommitted voters selected under the supervision of Dr. Frank Newport, Senior Scientist, Gallup.

The third and final Presidential debate will take place on Thursday, October 22, at Belmont University in Nashville, Tennessee. Kristen Welker, NBC News White House correspondent and co-anchor of "Today Weekend" will serve as moderator.

Reports say Tuesday, September 26th debate will be shaped by coronavirus precautions. The candidates will forego the traditional pre-debate handshake and also won’t do the awkward elbow bump. There will be limited audience members in attendance, all of whom will be tested prior to attending. Neither candidate, nor the moderator will wear masks. In addition, there will be no post-debate spin room for media. News organizations will have to schedule interviews with surrogates of the campaigns. With a coin flip, it has been determined that the first question will go to President Trump.
