The 2024 United States presidential debates were a series of debates held during the 2024 presidential election.
The first general election debate between the major candidates was sponsored by CNN and attended by then-presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden and presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump on June 27, 2024. A second debate, sponsored by ABC, took place between Trump and Kamala Harris on September 10, 2024. Biden was widely considered to have performed poorly during the first debate, with many commentators and Democrats calling for him to drop out of the race. He later withdrew his bid for re-election on July 21. Trump and Kamala Harris debated on September 10 on ABC. It was widely reported that Harris won that debate. A vice presidential debate, which was sponsored by CBS, was held on October 1.
Four general election debates sponsored by the Commission on Presidential Debates (CPD) were originally scheduled to be held between September 16 and October 9, 2024. Both Biden and Trump opposed the CPD's debate format and schedule.[1][2] In May 2024, both campaigns agreed to bypass the CPD and hold the alternative debates, canceling the CPD debates.
