However, his campaign is calling for changes to how these debates are conducted. They claimed that the Commission on Presidential Debates&#8217; structure did not meet voter interest or election structures. For example, the Biden campaign does not want a live audience to witness the debate. Instead, they want the debate to take place in a studio similar to what was done for John F. Kennedy and Richard Nixon.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>From the Washington Examiner<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Timing<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The commission had announced that its three proposed presidential debates would be held on Sept. 16, Oct. 1, and Oct. 9, along with a vice presidential debate on Sept. 25. O&#8217;Malley Dillon argued the debates were too late in the cycle and would be held after early voting had begun in several states, meaning millions of voters may have already cast their ballot.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Commission&#8217;s failure, yet again, to schedule debates that will be meaningful to all voters &#8212; not just those who cast their ballots late in the fall or on Election Day &#8212; underscores the serious limitations of its outdated approach,&#8221; O&#8217;Malley Dillon noted in the letter.<\/p>\n<p>The Biden campaign has suggested two presidential debates in June and September, along with a vice presidential debate in July. Trump said he is &#8220;ready and willing&#8221; to debate Biden at those proposed dates.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Substance over &#8216;spectacle&#8217;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Biden campaign also took issue with the commission holding debates with an audience, saying that the commission&#8217;s &#8220;model of building huge spectacles with large audiences at great expense simply isn&#8217;t necessary or conducive to good debates.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Additional Reading:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Birle, J.
