- It is a key event to capture the votes of the undecided, with the elections next November 5.
This Thursday, June 27, the first face-to-face debate between President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump will take place in the United States, within the framework of the electoral campaign towards the 2024 presidential elections.
The event, organized by CNN, will take place in Atlanta and will be broadcast live.
The debate, highly anticipated by public opinion throughout the region, will mark the beginning of the final stretch of an electoral race that is shaping up to be one of the closest and most polarizing in the country’s recent history.
Both Biden and Trump will have the opportunity to present their proposals and confront their visions for the future of the United States before millions of viewers.
In Mexico, interest in the debate has grown in recent hours, something that can be seen in the increase in searches according to Google Trends.
Unpublished encounter
Throughout the 90-minute duration, the candidates addressed a wide range of key issues, from the economy and employment, to foreign policy and national security, to social issues, civil rights and, fundamentally, immigration.
Although drastic changes in electoral preferences are not expected after this first debate, experts agree that it will mark a turning point in the race and will largely define the dynamics of the final stretch of the campaign.
The elections are on November 5.
It will be key to see how this event impacts the mood of undecided voters, who could tip the balance in favor of one candidate or another.
Biden vs Trump debate: importance
With the elections just around the corner, Biden and Trump know that every vote will count in this race that is shaping up to be one of the closest in recent history.
This Thursday’s debate will be unique because a president has never debated a former president, the same duel from the previous election has never been repeated and there have never been two candidates so old on the scene.
Another fact: since the last time they debated, that distant October 22, 2020, during a pandemic and days before the election in which the Democrat defeated the Republican, they never saw each other again.
The first debate will be in the hands of CNN, and the second will be sponsored by ABC. There will be no audience and no interruptions, because the microphones will only be on when it is each candidate’s turn to speak.
