Per ABC News, both candidates have agreed to the following:
• There will be no opening statements, and Trump and Harris are not allowed to ask each other questions during the debate.
• Each candidate will only be allowed to have a pen, a pad of paper and a water bottle at their identically sized podiums.
• No props or prewritten notes are allowed, and neither candidate can interact with their staff members during the two commercial breaks.
• The candidates get two minutes for each answer and rebuttal, and one minute for follow-ups, clarifications, and responses to rebuttals.
• At the end of the debate, they will each have two minutes for a closing statement. Trump will go last (he got to choose after winning a pre-debate coin toss).
