The only format that would be informative would be if it was scored live based on actual debate rules: a candidate gain points when they make an assertion backed by evidence or counters an opponent’s assertion with evidence. Extra points if it is an actual accomplishment of theirs or a team they have led; negative points for a lie or a claim that isn’t backed with evidence of the claim.
The running score is displayed live for the audience and candidates, as determined by a panel of expert judges of varying backgrounds and across the political spectrum.
