DeSantis Set To Debate Newsom Tonight, Here’s Where To Watch


Governor of Florida Ron DeSantis is set to debate Governor of California Gavin Newsom in a debate on Fox News.

The moderator for the debate is Fox News host Sean Hannity.

The debate will kick off at 9:00 p.m. ET.

Many political analysts believe that if Newsom performs well, he will jump into the presidential race to replace Biden.

Here’s what BBC reported:

Almost a year before Americans head to the polls for the 2024 presidential election, two prominent political fighters – a Democrat and a Republican – will square off on the debate stage.

It may not be next year’s title card – that’s Donald Trump and Joe Biden who are seemingly heading toward a 2020 rematch.

But these contestants, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and California Governor Gavin Newsom, make this week’s showdown an interesting contrast – and perhaps a preview of political battles to come.

The made-for-television event is the result of months of verbal sparring – and a cable news network and a conservative talking head, Sean Hannity, eager to offer a platform for the duel.

As the two men prepare to enter the ring, let’s look at the tale of the tape.

Per CBS:

In what may be the most unorthodox match-up of the 2024 presidential primary campaign to date, Florida governor and GOP presidential candidate Ron DeSantis and California’s Democratic governor, Gavin Newsom, who is not running for president, will face each other Thursday night in a debate moderated by Fox News’ Sean Hannity.

At 9 p.m. ET, the two will be taking part in what Fox News is billing as “The Great Red vs. Blue State Debate.” The two will debate for 90 minutes in Alpharetta, Georgia, and then will each speak to the press afterward.
