Third Repub­li­can debate to be held on Nov. 8 in Mia­mi

The Repub­li­can Nation­al Com­mit­tee will hold its third pri­ma­ry debate on Nov. 8 in Mia­mi, Flori­da, a per­son famil­iar with the RNC’s process con­firmed to the Wash­ing­ton Exam­in­er.
The news comes as the RNC pre­pares to hold its sec­ond debate on Sept. 27 at the Ronald Rea­gan Pres­i­den­tial Library in Simi Val­ley, Cal­i­for­nia.
TRUMP LOOKING FORWARD TO 2024 GENERAL ELECTION, PAST THE PRIMARIES AND MAYBE 2020
The RNC has not released the full list of eli­gi­ble can­di­dates who will appear onstage next week but for­mer Pres­i­dent Don­ald Trump, the cur­rent fron­trun­ner, will not attend the sec­ond debate. He also snubbed last mon­th’s first debate in Mil­wau­kee, Wis­con­sin opt­ing to release a pre­re­cord­ed inter­view with for­mer Fox News host Tuck­er Carl­son.
This time around Trump will hold a prime­time speech to more than 500 strik­ing Unit­ed Auto Work­ers as the sec­ond debate is air­ing. Trump also plans to skip the third debate accord­ing to report­ing from Bloomberg. The for­mer pres­i­den­t’s deci­sion to skip the first debate has not mean­ing­ful­ly cut into his large lead over all the oth­er 2024 GOP pres­i­den­tial offi­cials.
Pres­i­dent Joe Biden’s reelec­tion cam­paign is tap­ping Gov. Gavin New­som (D‑CA) to lead coun­ter­pro­gram­ming efforts dur­ing the sec­ond debate.
