Harris vs Trump: What To Expect From The US Presidential Debate

It will likely be the only televised debate between the two before the elections in November.

US Vice President Kamala Harris and former president Donald Trump will face off in a debate for the first time today, with less than two months remaining before the US election. It will likely be the only televised debate between the two before November.

US President Joe Biden's performance in the first presidential debate with Mr Trump in June compelled him to end his re-election campaign.

According to a poll by The New York Times and Siena College, Mr Trump was leading Ms Harris 48% to 47% nationally. The results remain "largely unchanged" from the same poll conducted in late July, just after Joe Biden dropped out of the race.
