OnPolitics: You know that you're going to be watching tonight

President Donald Trump and Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden will meet one last time. Get ready.

You guys, tonight is going to be a nutty experience that literally we're all going to be watching. What will happen when the mics get muted? How will the moderator do? And, good lord, will there be somebody watching for flies?

These are all the questions that will be answered tonight when President Donald Trump and Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden take the stage for their last debate before the Nov. 3 election.

Last chance: Can Trump use the Nashville debate to shake up a race?

What time does the debate start?

The debate will air from 9 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. EDT, and will be moderated by NBC News White House correspondent Kristen Welker. Viewers can stream the match-up at USATODAY.com. The debate also will air on major networks and cable channels, including Fox News, CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, PBS and C-SPAN.

People have already voted, tbh

With less than two weeks until Election Day, more than 45 million people have already voted, and elections experts predict historic rates of turnout this cycle.

More than 257 million people in the U.S. are 18 or older, and nearly 240 million citizens are eligible to vote this year, according to Michael McDonald, a professor at the University of Florida who runs the U.S. Elections Project. Eligible voters include people living overseas but not non-citizens or people convicted of a felony, depending on state law.

It's possible that 85 million people could vote before Nov. 3, with 150 million voting in total, according to McDonald. That would mean an eligible voter turnout rate of more than 62%.
