| − | The format for all Mild RePublican primary debates is the [[Quentinian Debate Format]], which features a number of topics organized into a number of sections by the moderator. Each of these sections allow for statements by each of the candidates, which last the same for each candidate, and then an open forum where the candidates each have the same amount of time to contribute, and when they want to add to the open discussion, they press a time clock, beginning their time and stopping the time of whoever else was talking. This goes on until the conversation is resolved, and then the moderator moves on to the next section.

| − | The first [[Mild RePublican Party]] debate was held on October 24th, 2020, and featured 9 candidates from around the country. Unlike in the second debate, all candidates who chose to run for [[President of the USQ|President]] under the Mild RePublican Party, registered with the [[Mild RePublican Debate Commission|party's debate commission]], and had support from at least one convention member were able to participate in the debate. The debate was held at [[Chris Lee Hall]] in [[Kindikil]], [[Desert Area|DA]] from 8:45 to 10:15 PM, and was covered by [[Diamond Television Network|DTN]] and [[Quentinian Broadcasting Corporation|QBC]] on television, and [[Tennomore Broadcasting System|TBS]] on radio and television. The moderators for the debate were [[Chrissy Teagan]], [[Jonathan McMillan]], and [[Gus Landry]] from the [[Quentinian Gazette]]. The event's ultimate ratings were the highest since 2008, as incumbent [[Kyle Lovestington]] decided not to run for the first time since then.
