WASHINGTON, Sept 21 (Reuters) - U.S. Vice President

Kamala Harris has accepted an invitation from CNN to participate

in a debate on Oct. 23, her campaign said on Saturday.

""Donald Trump should have no problem agreeing to this

debate. It is the same format and setup as the CNN debate he

attended and said he won in June, when he praised CNN's

moderators, rules, and ratings," campaign chair Jen O'Malley

Dillon said in a statement.

The Trump campaign did not immediately respond to a request

for comment.
