Is it undue to mention RFK in the lede? edit

As of right now, we have no way of knowing if he would even qualify for the presidential debates. David O. Johnson (talk) 03:55, 8 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

I removed it based on today's news that Biden and Trump are accepting an invitation from CNN, outside of the CPD. RFK Jr. meeting the CPD criteria becomes moot if the CPD is not involved in the 2024 debates. – Muboshgu (talk) 15:11, 15 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Biden declined CPD edit

Latest comment: 6 days ago1 comment1 person in discussion

There is a statement itself on the page of Biden declining to participate in the debates by the CPD, so shouldn’t the table be updated to reflect this? SDudley (talk) 18:44, 15 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Has the CPD invited Trump and Biden to participate in their debates? edit

Latest comment: 6 days ago2 comments2 people in discussion

This page says invitations have been extended for Trump and Biden to appear in the CPD's 3 debates, but I have not found a statement from the Commission stating that they have done so: [1]. They typically do it a few days before the debates are scheduled to take place. Dingers5Days (talk) 20:54, 15 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

They have not. It looks like Biden and Trump were added as invited when whoever created the table put it in the article :[2]. I'll change it to TBD. I'm not even sure if we should even keep the section, since it's clear that the campaigns won't be attending the CPD presidential debates. David O. Johnson (talk) 21:07, 15 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Question on date range in infobox edit

Latest comment: 5 days ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Why are the debate dates currently listed as a range in the infobox, rather than separate dates?

I.E. "June 27, 2024 – September 10, 2024."

Thanks for any explanation. David O. Johnson (talk) 07:15, 17 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
