BAKERSFIELD, Calif. — There was a lot to take in following the first of three presidential debates between President Trump and Democratic challenger Joe Biden. To help break it all down, 23ABC spoke with California State University Bakersfield Assistant Professor and Pre-law Advisor in the Political Science Department Dr. Jeanine Kraybill.

The first presidential debate of the 2020 election is behind us, but we still have two more coming up before Nov. 3, as well as a vice presidential debate.

The next debate will be between the running mates, Vice President Mike Pence and Sen. Kamala Harris. The candidates for vice president will square off on Oct. 7 at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City.

The next time President Donald Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden will face off will be on Oct. 15 at the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts in Miami, Florida.
