WASHINGTON (AP) — The Latest on Campaign 2016 on the eve of Monday's presidential debate at 9:00 p.m. on MSNBC from Hofstra University (all times local):

9:22 a.m.

Will Gennifer Flowers attend the first debate between presidential candidates Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton? Only if someone other than Trump's campaign invites her.

That's according to Trump's campaign manager, Kellyanne Conway. She tells CNN's "State of the Union" Sunday that "we don't expect her to be there as a guest of the Trump campaign." But on ABC's "This Week," Conway said Flowers has a right to attend "if somebody else gives her a ticket."

Flowers claims she had a lengthy affair with Bill Clinton while he served as governor. The accusation nearly derailed his presidential bid in 1992. Bill Clinton acknowledged having caused pain in his marriage.

Conway says Trump's tweeted threat to put Flowers in the audience was merely countering the prospect of billionaire Mark Cuban, a harsh Trump critic, attending the debate.

Conway says voters deserve and expect a debate about issues such as the economy, health care, terrorism and national security.

9:40 a.m.

Presidential candidates Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump are expected to meet separately in New York with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

The meeting could set the tone for future relations between Israel and the next White House administration. The Israeli leader has sought to project neutrality this time after perceptions arose that he favored Mitt Romney over President Barack Obama in 2012.

The one-on-one discussions will follow what was likely Netanyahu's final meeting with Obama last week, capping what has been a sometimes rocky relationship between the leaders of the two allies.
