9/10 Harris-Trump Pres. Debate Context Livestream Good morning, Last Tuesday, Vote Smart hosted a Context Livestream of the presidential debate between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump. Thank you to everyone who watched our event live, or watched the recording sometime this week. We hope this event - and similar events we've hosted in the last few weeks - help you to discern what is accurate from what is exaggerated. We are always proud of our research staff, but especially when they are put in the hot seat and conduct research in real time. In the 90 minutes that Harris and Trump spoke, our staff found 101 individual sources! That truly speaks to not only the quality, but also the quantity, of the work the Vote Smart staff provides in a short amount of time. For those curious, the most researched topics of the night are as follows: Border Security & Immigration: 9 sources Russia/Ukraine: 9 sources Energy: 8 sources Abortion: 7 sources Healthcare: 7 sources Israel/Hamas: 6 sources January 6th, 2021: 6 sources Just because the event is over doesn't mean that the need for information is! There are two documents available for you to look through: The first document provided is a list of sources with regards to Harris's and Trump's respective opinions on a variety of topics. Our staff put this together to prepare for what the candidates might say, and therefore make the research process easier. Access that document here. Another document was put together post-debate. This lists the full transcript from the debate, complete with all the sources our researchers found from that night embedded throughout, so that you can decide for yourself whether the candidates were staying true to previous statements they've made.
