Where is the debate?
The first general election debate will be held at CNN's studios in Atlanta. Unlike the Republican primary debates, no audience will be present.
Once a Republican stronghold, Georgia was a pivotal battleground in 2020. Both parties are preparing for another closely contested race in the state this year. Trump also faces an indictment in Georgia for his push to “find 11,780 votes” and overturn Biden’s victory based on false or unproven theories of voter fraud.
