Kamala Harris and Donald Trump have no plans to debate again, but they will appear at separate town halls with Latino voters on Univision next month. The Spanish-language network announced Tuesday that Trump will answer questions on Oct. 8 in Miami.
Harris will participate in a similar town hall with undecided Latinos on Oct. 10 in Las Vegas. Harris challenged Trump to meet again face-to-face after their ABC debate on Sept.
10. Over the weekend, Harris accepted an offer to debate on CNN on Oct. 23.
But the former president — who had challenged Harris last month to three debates — declined, saying it’s “ too late .” The Univision events will be broadcast with Spanish translation. They will also be available in English on the network’s YouTube channel.
Enrique Acevedo will moderate both events. Univision said the topics will include the economy, jobs, healthcare, immigration and foreign policy. Latinos make up 14.
7% of eligible voters nationwide, according to the Pew Research Center. They also make up a larger share of the electorate in the key swing states of Arizona and Nevada, at 25% and 22% respectively. “Noticias Univision serves as a two-way bridge: we bring every voice to our community while conveying the concerns of Latinos to those in power,” Daniel Coronell, the president of Noticias Univision, said in a statement.
“There are more than 36 million Hispanics eligible to vote in the U.S., making them the largest minority in the country, with the power to influence the outcome of the race for the White House and the future of the nation.
” Tim Walz and J.D. Vance are set to meet next Tuesday for the only vice presidential debate of the campaign.
Norah O’Donnell and Margaret Brennan will moderate that event on CBS..
