JD Vance and Tim Walz Set for 1 October VP Debate
JD Vance and Tim Walz, the vice-presidential candidates for the upcoming US election, have agreed to participate in a debate on 1 October. The debate, hosted by CBS in New York, promises to be a significant event as the candidates present their visions to voters.
“See you on October 1, JD,” Tim Walz, Kamala Harris’s running mate, posted on X (formerly Twitter) on Wednesday, confirming his participation. JD Vance, Donald Trump’s running mate, responded on Thursday, not only confirming the October date but also challenging Walz to a second debate on CNN on 18 September. Vance expressed his eagerness by posting, “I look forward to seeing you at both!”
As of now, Walz has not commented on the possibility of the second debate in September.
Meanwhile, the presidential candidates themselves, Donald Trump and Kamala Harris, have agreed to debate on ABC on 10 September. This follows a change of heart from Trump, who had initially insisted on debating only on the conservative network Fox.
