Former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris have agreed to a debate on Sept. 10 hosted by ABC News, both presidential nominees said Thursday.
Trump at a news conference said that he has also signed up for two more debates: one to be hosted by Fox News on Sept. 4, the other to be hosted by NBC News on Sept. 25.
Harris, the Democratic nominee, later told reporters, “I am happy to have that conversation about an additional debate, or after Sept. 10 [on ABC News], for sure.”
“I have always been on record, I am looking forward to debating Donald Trump and we have a date of Sept. 10,” Harris told NBC News earlier at a campaign event with the United Auto Workers union in Wayne, Michigan.
Republican nominee Trump, at the news conference at his Mar-a-Lago club in Palm Beach, Florida, said, “I think it’s very important to have debates.”
Trump said CBS News will host a vice presidential debate between his running mate, Sen. JD Vance of Ohio, and Harris’ running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz.
Fox previously agreed to host a Trump-Harris debate on Sept. 4.
