With 13 days until the election, Kamala Harris is scheduled to answer questions from voters in a live town hall on Wednesday night.
CNN will host the hour and 15-minute event from Pennsylvania, a battleground state where both the Harris and Trump campaigns need to win to secure the White House.
The network previously offered Harris and Trump an invitation to the October debate, but Trump declined and Harris accepted.

The Guardian will send reporters to cover City Hall and will cover the debate through live blogging, live analysis and news.
Why is it being held at City Hall instead of the second Harris-Trump debate?
After the September debate, Harris challenged Trump to face her a second time, but Trump rejected the offer, saying it was “too late.”
“It’s too late to do the next thing. In many ways, as much as I would like to, it’s too late. The votes are in and the voters are right there. Please vote, everyone. Please. “Get out and vote,” Trump said at a rally in North Carolina in late September.
Harris accepted CNN’s invitation to a second debate in late September, then agreed to a town hall once the debate acceptance deadline passed. Her campaign released a statement that read in part: “While Mr. Trump may want to hide from voters, Vice President Harris welcomes the opportunity to share her vision for a new path forward for our country.” said.
CNN reported that Trump has proposed that he attend another town hall, which will also be held on October 23rd. The Trump campaign has so far not responded to the invitation.
When is the presidential election?
Voters will head to the polls on November 5th. Early voting is underway in some states, and Americans are heading to the polls in droves in some states, including Georgia.
