Security efforts for Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump's much anticipated presidential debate includes a surveillance balloon and more than a thousand police officers.

The first US presidential debate, a clash of titans Monday between Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton and Republican Donald Trump, is one of the high points of the campaign, six weeks from the November 8 elections.

Security efforts for Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump's much anticipated presidential debate includes a surveillance balloon and more than a thousand police officers; Reuters reported.
   
This first of three nationally televised debates will give the candidates a chance to introduce themselves -- or re-introduce themselves -- to skeptical American voters who will be watching closely for the slightest misstep, awkward gesture or fatal altercation.

It could shatter records for a television audience, with an estimated 90 million people expected to tune in, drawn by the high contrast between candidates and an extremely tight race; AFP reported.
