Republican Candidate Donald Trump faces off Democrat candidate Hilary Clinton in the first of four series of 2016 Presidential debates to be held on Monday 26th September 2016 at 9.00 pm ET for 90 minutes with no commercial brake! The highly anticipated showdown takes center stage at Hofstra University, New Hampshire with experts estimating viewership of over 100 million people from around the globe.

Both candidates go into the debate at the back of a grueling campaign trail that has left them traverse the country racking up votes. It also comes on the back of Democrat candidate Hilary Clinton suffering a major health setback after collapsing on September 11 2016 during a memorial for the 9/11 victims, something which rival candidate Donald Trump may get straight into knowing his love for pouncing on anything.

Podium and stage in final settings ahead of the showdown today night

Hilary Clinton comes into the debate with a slight lead of 2.1% into the polls and will look to gain more ground over bullish candidate Trump who has massively hit out at Hilary Clinton on his twitter handle over various claims throughout the campaign.

Crooked Hillary’s bad judgement forced her to announce that she would go to Charlotte on Saturday to grandstand. Dem pols said no way, dumb!

Donald Trump faces a huge challenge of convincing Americans of mixed colour race as he has widely spoken out against Blacks, Muslims and Latino societies living in America and voters will wait to see how he manages to counteract this issue if it comes up for query during the debate.
