The Presidential debate planned for next week is now off the schedule.
On Thursday, the Commission on Presidential Debates announced a change in format where questioners and moderator Steve Scully would still be in Miami but President Donald Trump and challenger Joe Biden would be in different locations. Trump declined to be involved afterward, saying the virtual debate would “waste his time.” He then agreed to take part if the debate was moved to Oct. 22 and the final debate, now set for Oct. 22, was moved to Oct. 29.
Biden is not in favor of changing the debate dates. Instead, he will be part of an ABC News town hall in Philadelphia on Oct. 15. He will take questions directly from voters during that event.
