Democrat Tim Walz and Republican JD Vance will go head-to-head on Tuesday in the first — and most likely the only — vice presidential debate before the election on November 5.
Tuesday’s highly anticipated debate between the two running mates is expected to bring fireworks as the Midwesterners have been duking it out on the campaign trail.
Vance has attacked Walz’s military record , claiming the Minnesota Governor dodged deployment to Iraq, while Walz has questioned Vance’s background , highlighting that the Ohio Senator is a Yale graduate who palled around with “Silicon Valley billionaires” while writing a bestseller about his “hillbilly” roots.
Here’s all you need to know about the vice presidential debate.
The 90-minute debate will begin at 9pm (Eastern Time) on CBS on October 1. It will be moderated by CBS Evening News anchor Norah O’Donnell and Face the Nation moderator Margaret Brennan.
The CBS debate will not have a live audience, according to the network , and will be filmed in New York City.
