Trump and Harris in First Presidential Debate Tonight
Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump will hold a 90-minute debate tonight at 9 p.m. at the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia.
The debate was to have taken place by late July, but President Biden announced July 21, that he was withdrawing from the presidential election. Democrats then aligned behind Vice President Harris ahead of the Democratic National Convention last month in Chicago.
The Harris and Trump camps spent several weeks discussing specifics and rules, finally agreeing to hold the debate Sept. 10.

Moderating the debate will be ABC News anchors David Muir and Linsey Davis. Currently this is the only debate agreed upon and scheduled for the presidential campaign. The vice president debate between Republican J. D. Vance and Democrat Tim Walz is scheduled for Tuesday, Oct. 1, in New York City.
Most polls presently show a close presidential race, with each candidate leading by only a few points across various polls. CBN News reports the candidates are tied in the debate site state of Pennsylvania.

The candidates are expected to promote their respective visions for the country, with Harris talking up Democratic party planks from the DNC including relitigating the recently overturned Roe v. wade with further expanded access to abortion, economic recovery, healthcare access and social justice. Expect Harris to continue pushing the growth of ObamaCare, along with ongoing support for LGBTQ+ rights. Lok for Trump to discuss continuations of his policies from his first term, widely regarded to have been a period of economic stability and vigor, just before the pandemic wreaked havoc over the global economy. Trump also will discuss conservative values, strong emphasis on family, education and national security.
Let us remember to keep all of our elected leaders covered in prayer, from our local hometowns to current and future residents of the Oval Office. May they be convicted of the Lord’s guidance and wisdom, led by Scripture’s truth and the love of Jesus.
