Former President Donald Trump is set to participate in an all-female Fox News town hall on October 16 at a location in Cumming, Georgia. Hosted by Harris Faulkner, the event will focus on “issues impacting women” and feature an audience composed entirely of women. The announcement was made by Fox News on Friday.
Faulkner emphasized that women make up the largest group of registered and active voters in the United States, so it is crucial for female voters to understand each presidential candidate’s stance on the most pressing issues for them. According to a press release from Fox News, the town hall will be pre-taped on October 15 and air on The Faulkner Focus at 11 a.m. Eastern on October 16.
In addition to Trump’s event, Fox News has extended an invitation for a similar town hall with Vice President Kamala Harris, but no confirmation has been made yet. This announcement comes after Trump stated that he would not participate in another debate with Harris, as early voting has already begun and there is “nothing to debate.
This news follows former President Barack Obama expressing concerns over the lack of support for Harris, particularly among black voters, including black men. As the election approaches, it remains to be seen how these town halls and debates will impact voter opinions and ultimately, the outcome of the presidential race.
