Last night’s consequential debate, explained

The Vox politics team unpacks the wins and losses of the first presidential debate.

Hello, I oversee Vox's politics and policy team, and last night's presidential debate was a great example of how we cover the biggest and most confounding moments. We take pride in providing thoughtful, thorough journalism that helps you navigate the state of American democracy. We can only do that with your help. SUPPORT OUR WORK Ahead of the debate, we published a special series of stories called Facts on the Ground, which aimed to bring you clarity on the most contested policy areas. We also spent an hour answering your burning election questions with a Q&A featuring reporters Christian Paz and Eric Levitz. I'm proudest of our ability to cover all aspects of the debate last night and keep the public informed along the way. Our team hustled to bring you explainers about what readers cared most about, including a story about whether Democrats can actually replace Biden, and offered expert analysis on what we just saw and what could happen next.  If you value our election coverage, please consider supporting our journalism by making a gift or becoming a Vox Member. —Libby Nelson, editorial director of policy and politics Read the latest stories on the presidential debate Will Biden be the nominee? 3 scenarios for what's next. by Andrew Prokop Open convention?
