What's an "official" political debate? The government runs no such thing.
Also in general, many debates on TV are jest talking, no winner is declared. It's the opposite of a competitive format.
Yes, fair correction. Perhaps that is a point itself, the way debates between political opponents are presented as formal and official when in fact they are entirely at the whim of the broadcaster and the politicians involved.
