The percentages that both candidates won at the time were within the margins predicted by the site.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Trump has <a href=\"https:\/\/conservativebrief.com\/moderators-for-84952\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">confirmed<\/a> he will participate in a one-on-one debate with Harris, scheduled for September 10 on ABC.<\/p>\n<p>Trump announced his acceptance at a press conference at his Mar-a-Lago Club on Thursday. Harris has also confirmed her participation, making this the first debate between the two candidates since President Joe Biden called it quits last month following a dismal debate performance of his own.<\/p>\n<p>Initially, Trump eagerly anticipated his second debate with Biden on ABC, which he readily accepted in May. But he hinted he could opt to skip it in comments earlier this month after Biden essentially passed the torch to his vice president, though she got blown out of the Democratic primaries in 2020 and Biden received all the primary votes this year.<\/p>\n<p>ABC News announced that David Muir and Linsey Davis will serve as moderators for the upcoming debate.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think it\u2019s very important to have debates,\u201d Trump said during his press conference. \u201cWe have spoken to the heads of the network, and it\u2019s all been confirmed, other than some fairly minor details. Audience, some location, which city would we put it into, but all things that will be settled very easily, very, I think it will be very easy. The other side has to agree to the terms. They may or may not agree.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-10\">Advertisement<\/p>\n<div id=\"ld-12578241793956198-359\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Trump also took aim at Harris, especially her failed record as \u2018border czar\u2019: \u201cI don\u2019t know if they\u2019re going to agree. She hasn\u2019t done an interview. She can\u2019t do an interview. She\u2019s barely competent, and she can\u2019t do an interview. But I look forward to the debates, because I think we have to set the record straight. Why is it that millions of people were allowed to come into our country from prisons, from jails, from mental institutions, insane asylums, even insane prisons.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Harris\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/conservativebrief.com\/kamala-harris-finally-84943\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">took a few questions<\/a>\u00a0from reporters following a Michigan campaign event on Thursday. She said her team is working out a date for her to hold a full-blown press conference, which would be her first since Biden essentially anointed her the party\u2019s nominee.<\/p>\n<p>An insider with Harris\u2019s team stated on Thursday night that the vice president is not against having more debates, according to ABC News senior White House correspondent Selina Wang. The insider claims that those discussions are \u201ccontingent on Trump showing up\u201d on September 10, which he is planning on doing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tom Bevan, the co-founder and president of RealClearPolitics, cited the average polling from several surveys published this week to determine that Trump is on pace to win 287 electoral votes while Harris is at 251.
