The third presidential debate of the 2016 election cycle kicked off in Las Vegas Wednesday night, with Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton facing off for the final time before the election on November 8.
Thanks to a solid moderating job by Fox News' Chris Wallace, the candidates delved deep into big issues not previously discussed in the other two debates, which were mostly dominated by personal attacks and Trump's alleged treatment of women.
On Wednesday, Trump and Clinton sparred over Supreme Court justices, abortion, gun rights, the economy, foreign hot spots, and Russia and Vladimir Putin, among other things.
The night ended with a bombshell from Trump when he refused to say whether he'll support the November election results.
