The commission also announced Wednesday that USA Today’s Susan Page will moderate the vice-presidential debate on Oct. 7 in Salt Lake City with Vice-President Mike Pence and Democrat Kamala Harris.

There was no immediate reaction from either campaign to the selections.

Trump and Biden have said they will attend the scheduled debates, which are meant to offer voters to opportunity to see the contrast between the candidates on live television.

Trump’s team has tried to pressure the commission to move up the debates, citing increased use of early and absentee voting because of the coronavirus.
