Speaking at a press conference at his residence in Palm Beach, Florida, former President Trump expressed his desire to have two more debates on September 4 and September 25, which will be broadcast on Fox and NBC. On social media X, Vice President Harris expressed her anticipation for the debate on September 10 after Trump “finally announced his participation”. Speaking to reporters at a campaign stop in Detroit, she affirmed her willingness to discuss more debates. Previously, Mr. Trump had hinted at the possibility of withdrawing from the debate on ABC News, which was scheduled before Ms. Harris replaced President Joe Biden as the Democratic presidential candidate less than 3 weeks ago. Earlier the same day, Ipsos released the results of a public opinion poll showing that Ms. Harris received 42% support, leading compared to Mr. Trump's 37% in the race for the US President's seat in November. Harris has widened her lead since a July 22-23 Reuters/Ipsos poll that found her ahead of Trump by 37% to 34%. The poll of 2,045 adults in the United States, conducted Aug. 2-7, found that 4% of those surveyed supported independent candidate Robert Kennedy Jr., down from 10% in July. The poll, conducted online, has a margin of error of about 3 percentage points. In a separate poll, Ipsos found Harris leading Trump by 42% to 40% in the seven states with the closest vote margins in 2020: Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. However, the results did not factor in the results in individual states.
