Democratic Presidential candidate, Kamala Harris has accepted to debate her Republican counterpart, Donald Trump twice, while their running mates would do so once, seeking to draw a line under weeks of election brinkmanship

The two camps had already agreed to one presidential debate on September 10 and a vice-presidential face-off on October 1, but the Trump campaign had been pushing for two further presidential debates in September and an extra VP encounter.

“The debate about debates is over. Donald Trump’s campaign accepted our proposal for three debates — two presidential and a vice presidential debate,
” the Harris campaign said in a statement.

It added that, “assuming Donald Trump actually shows up on September 10,” Harris running mate Tim Walz would debate Trump’s VP pick J.D. Vance on October 1, and then there would be another Trump-Harris face-off later in October.

The Trump campaign did not immediately respond to an AFP request for its reaction to the statement.

Harris’s late entry into the race — replacing President Joe Biden after his withdrawal amid concerns over his age and unpopularity — has effectively turned it into the kind of sprint to election day more common in Europe.

Already a trailblazer as the first female and first Black and South Asian vice president, Harris is aiming to make history as the first woman president — and is scrambling to pitch herself to the public ahead of November 5.
