Presidential debates have become customary during the campaign season. During the debates, the candidates of the Republican and Democratic party engage in discussion over current and controversial topics in relation to their policy platforms.

The presidential debates represent one of the last chances for the candidates of the Republican and Democratic party to sway any undecided voters on a national scale. Presidential candidates will continue to campaign in various states up until the general election date.

The "Tuesday next after the first Monday in November" is the annual day for the general election. This is when the American people go to the polls to cast their vote for their state's electors.
