What are Gen Z voters looking for from first 2024 Biden-Trump debate?
Ahead of the first presidential debate between Biden and Trump, USA TODAY spoke with young voters about what they hope to hear from the candidates.
President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump will take the stage Thursday night in Atlanta in the first head-to-head presidential debate of the 2024 election.
The debate airing on CNN will differ from previous debates between the two candidates in a few notable ways, thanks to rules put in place by the network: there will be no live audience, and all microphones will be muted except for the candidate whose turn it is to speak.
Both candidates may spar over their respective ages (Biden is 81, Trump is 78), as well as Trump’s recent criminal conviction, their stances on abortion and the Israel-Hamas war.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who is running as an independent candidate, did not qualify for the debate and will not join Trump and Biden on stage.
Here’s how to watch the “CNN Presidential Debate”, the first of the 2024 election cycle between Trump and Biden.
