President Donald Trump and Democratic challenger Joe Biden will square off tonight in their first presidential debate in Cleveland.
It is the first debate between the two candidate.
Many are expecting coronavirus to be the center of discussion. Johns Hopkins University announced Monday that the total number of deaths worldwide eclipsed over one million.

In the hours leading up to the debate, Biden released his tax returns in response to the recent reports about Trump’s tax history in which he either paid no or few taxes.
The debate begins tonight at 9 p.m. Eastern, and will air on all major news outlets.
Tampa Bay Lightning capture its 2nd Stanley Cup, parade announced for Wednesday
Lightning struck twice for Tampa’s hockey team Monday night, as the Tampa Bay Lightning defeated the Dallas Stars 2-0 to win the Stanley Cup. It marks the 2nd title won by the team since the players brought home the trophy in 2004.
After an historic 2019 season came to a heart-wrenching defeat in dubious fashion, the Bolts redeemed themselves with another solid 2020 campaign. The team coasted into the playoffs as the No. 2 seed in the East, before dominating every team they faced. They never had to take a series into seven games, and ultimately ended up winning the championship in six.
The Lightning will host a boat parade on Sept. 29. It will be at Tampa Riverwalk Wednesday at 5 p.m.
