Biden and Trump agree to two presidential debates
By Anthony Zurcher
Joe Biden and Donald Trump have agreed to participate in two televised presidential debates in June and September.
It was unclear if a third candidate would qualify to take part. CNN stated that participants “must appear on a sufficient number of state ballots to reach the 270 electoral vote threshold” and receive at least 15% support in four separate recognised polls.
The election-year presidential debates are typically broadcast on multiple US networks. At least 73 million Americans watched the first 2020 debate between Mr Trump and Mr Biden.
