Incumbent President Donald Trump on Thursday immediately declined to participate after hearing that the program would be held virtually, while Joe Biden announced that if Trump was still infected with the virus, the debate should be cancelled entirely. Statement from the Commission on Presidential Debates oct. 8 UPDATEThis morning, the Commission on Presidential Debates (CPD)
announced that the second debate scheduled to be held on Thursday, Oct. 15, will be held virtually. As stated below, this will be the second time presidential candidates debated remotely. Statement from the Commission on Presidential Debates SEPT. 30 UPDATEToday, the Commission on Presidential Debates (CPD)
announced that they will be formulating new debate rules: Statement from the Commission on Presidential Debates Over the span of the next three weeks, the Commission on Presidential Debates (CPD) will conduct a series of three presidential debates. This year's debates feature the incumbent president Donald Trump and former vice-president Joe Biden in preparation for the Nov. 3 election. If at any time the upcoming debates need to separate the candidates to safer locations due to Covid-19 concerns, it won’t be the first time presidential candidates debated remotely. During the Oct. 13, 1960 presidential debate between Richard Nixon and John Kennedy, the candidates were separated by 3,000 miles. Both men appeared in similar looking ABC studios, and stood behind matching podiums, but Kennedy was actually televised from New York City and Nixon was in Hollywood, while the moderator Bill Shadell and five panelists asked the questions from a third ABC affiliate studio. 2020 presidential debate scheduleIncumbent Donald Trump vs. Joe Biden  IMAGE: Doug Mills/The New York Times Tuesday, Sept. 29 9pm to 10:30pm EST

Robert Maynard of The Washington Post and syndicated columnist Joseph Craft. The event was moderated by Barbara Walters of ABC Beginning in 1976, the League of Women Voters organized nonpartisan presidential debates and forums to ensure that voters were well-informed on the upcoming electoral issues. Under their guidance, the debates featured two women moderators Pauline Frederick and Barbara Walters. In 1988, the League decided to stop supporting the debates when they determined that the candidates were demanding increasingly partisan conditions. Sept. 23, 1976

Issues
During the Sept. 23 debate the audio failed during Carter's response with less than 9 minutes remaining in the program. Sound engineers endeavored to find the cause for 27 minutes of “technicial difficulties” while Carter and Ford remained standing silently behind their podiums and moderator Harry Reasoner assured the audience it was not a conspiracy to devalue either candidate. Ultimately the problem was traced to a blown transformer. 1980 Presidential Debate Incumbent Jimmy Carter vs. Ronald Reagan  Oct. 28, 1980
