Donald Trump and Kamala Harris will debate for the first - and perhaps, last - time on Tuesday night as the presidential candidates fight to sway voters on the biggest stage in U.S. politics.
The meeting comes just 75 days after President Joe Biden's disastrous debate performance triggered a political earthquake that ultimately forced him from the race . Few expect such a transformative result this time, but Trump is on a mission to end Harris' "honeymoon" as polls suggest the Democratic vice president is now even - or slightly ahead - of the Republican former president in some swing states.
Harris, a former courtroom prosecutor, will enter the night with relatively high expectations against a Republican opponent with 34 felony convictions and a penchant for false statements. The question is whether Harris, who did not particularly stand out during primary debates in her 2020 presidential campaign, can prosecute Trump's glaring liabilities in a face-to-face meeting on live television with the world watching.
The 90-minute meeting begins at 9 p.m. ET Tuesday inside Philadelphia's National Constitutional Center. It will be moderated by ABC News anchors David Muir and Linsey Davis. In accordance with rules negotiated by both campaigns, there will be no live audience.
Here's what we're watching for on a historic night:
