It'll be interesting to see Trump compare the questions he gets from "undecided voters" vs those that Biden gets.
It'll also be interesting to see, after the revelations about Biden's last town hall "undecided voters", if there is any pre or post townhall vetting.

Yeah comparing the two tow halls will be very interesting.

I am not going to be able to watch but I would have thought the TV station would have wanted to put President Trump and VP Biden on separate nights.

"undecided voters"
Two of the questioners at the ABC town hall featuring Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden on Thursday had ties to high-profile Democrats, including one questioner who previously worked as a speechwriter in the Obama administration.
The queries came as President Trump, hundreds of miles away, was engaging in his own parallel town hall being aired on NBC. The ABC town hall was hosted by George Stephanopoulos, who was a communications director for the Bill Clinton White House and who has been a political journalist since 2002.
One of the questioners at the ABC-hosted event was Nathan Osburn, a former speechwriter for the Obama White House. Osburn specifically worked for the Office of Public Affairs at the Commerce Department under the Obama-Biden administration and at the Small Business Administration.
Osburn's profession was listed as "communications" on the ABC town hall graphic and his city was listed as Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Osburn was quoted in the Philadelphia Inquirer earlier this year as "a former Obama administration speechwriter" who had created a "Philly for Pete group" aimed at boosting former Democratic presidential primary candidate Pete Buttigieg. And the LGBTQ Victory Institute listed Osburn as a senior speechwriter for the Small Business Administration in an article praising the Obama-Biden administration for its LGBTQ hiring practices. ...
Another questioner at the town hall was Mieke Haeck, who ABC presented as a physical therapist from State College, Pa.
Haeck is also the wife of Ezra Nanes, a high-profile Democrat in Pennsylvania who in 2018 ran a campaign challenging Republican state Senate Majority Leader Jake Corman. Nanes is currently an at-large member of the Centre County Democratic Committee. Centre County is the county in which State College resides.
"My youngest daughter is transgender. The Trump administration has attacked the rights of transgender people, banning them from military service, weakening nondiscrimination protections and even removing the word 'transgender' from some government websites," Haeck said. "How will you as president reverse this dangerous and discriminatory agenda and ensure that the lives and rights of LGBTQ people are protected under U.S. law?"
"I will flat out just change the law," Biden responded.

Biden got more, on TV at least. Maybe online will tell a different story.

BTW, she was not an undecided voter. She was a Biden supporter before the event.

Perhaps Trump is a known quantity?

And Biden isn't?
I figure it's either going to be reversed with online viewership or it's indicative of Trump fatigue.

For some people, I don't think Biden is...He hasn't campaigned vigorously. Mostly what people have seen are canned ads.

Biden is nowhere near as entertaining as Trump.

And as mentioned, Tucker did very well in the same time slot.
