Vice presidential candidates Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) and JD Vance (R-Ohio) will go head-to-head this week in their only debate of the 2024 campaign cycle.
The CBS News-hosted event will take place at 9 p.m. Tuesday at the network’s headquarters in New York City. It will last for 90 minutes with two four-minute breaks. The candidates won’t give opening statements, and there will be no live audience.
It could be the last White House debate of the election cycle, as former President Trump has said he won’t take part in another after he and Vice President Harris went head-to-head on Sept. 10. More than 67 million people tuned in to watch the top-of-the-ticket candidates duke it out.
“CBS Evening News” anchor Norah O’Donnell and “Face the Nation” host Margaret Brennan will moderate.
CBS News over the weekend confirmed that under the terms of the debate the moderators won’t fact-check the candidates live, so it will be up to Walz and Vance to rebut any false or misleading comments their opponent makes.
