LIVE: Harris and Trump Face Off At US Presidential Debate 2024 In Philadelphia

by Nomad

Republican ex-president Donald Trump and Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris meet for the first time on Tuesday night in their only scheduled debate of the U.S. presidential campaign, a key moment in a close-fought contest. The nationally-televised debate takes place just eight weeks before the Nov. 5 election, and days before early voting will start in some states.

The rules for tonight's debate mean each candidate’s microphone is only turned on when it is their turn to speak, there is no studio audience and the candidates aren’t allowed to talk to their staff during breaks or bring any notes with them. Both candidates are provided with only a pen and pad and a bottle of water.

Watch live right here at Nomadic Politics. The broadcast begins at 9 p.m. ET
