It will be hosted by Clive Myrie from the Capitol, with Sumi Somaskanda and Caitríona Perry in the BBC’s Washington DC studio.

Correspondents will report from battleground states while North America editor Sarah Smith and North America correspondent Anthony Zurcher will give their take from Washington DC.
