Vice Presidential Candidate – Republican Ohio Sen. JD Vance and Democratic Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz — set to face off Tuesday night in the first and only scheduled vice presidential debate of the 2024 presidential election cycle. The stakes are high. Vance and Walz have just 34 days left to make their pitch to voters across the country.
One of the biggest quirks of VP debates is that, when the running mates are on stage, the presidential nominees get the lion’s share of the attention. Vance and Walz will be on stage to speak to their candidate — and walk down the other side. Vance has spent months bashing Vice President Kamala Harris over her record on the border and immigration. Walz, meanwhile, has hit out at Vance and former President Donald Trump for their opposition to reproductive rights, linking them to the highly unpopular Project 2025.
