Election Debates

Election Debates is a formal public discourse event in political communication that serves as a structured forum wherein candidate participants engage in real-time rhetorical exchange to present policy positions, challenge opponents, and clarify electoral platforms before a mass audience, thereby distinguishing it from other campaign communication formats through its interactive, performative, and mediatised nature.
