Kamala Harris on Saturday challenged Donald Trump to another debate in the lead-up to the United States (US) presidential election, with her campaign saying she had accepted an invitation from broadcaster CNN to host the event on October 23.

“Vice President Harris is ready for another opportunity to share a stage with Donald Trump,” her campaign chair Jen O’Malley Dillon said in a statement.

“The American people deserve another opportunity to see Vice President Kamala Harris and Donald Trump debate before they cast their ballots.”

Republican Trump has attended two debates so far, one against President Joe Biden and one against Harris, who has since replaced her boss at the top of the Democratic ticket.

Trump has previously rejected the idea of facing Harris again. His campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Most pundits put Harris as the winner of the last debate, which was held on September 10.

Biden’s poor debate performance against Trump in June, where the president struggled to complete some of his sentences, catalysed concerns over his age and ramped up pressure for the 81-year-old to drop out of the race.

The move has left Trump, 78, now the oldest presidential nominee against a much younger Harris, 59.
