Walz and Vance Set for High-Stakes Debate

Tim Walz and J.D. Vance, vice-presidential candidates from the Democratic and Republican parties respectively, are gearing up for a crucial 90-minute televised debate.

Moderated by Norah O'Donnell and Margaret Brennan, the debate will cover migration, abortion, and the economy. Both candidates will have pens, paper, and water, but no prepared notes or fact-checking will be allowed.

Microphones can be muted if needed, and the debate will include two four-minute breaks where staff interaction with candidates is prohibited. Vance, who will have the final word due to a coin toss, is expected to leverage his background as a Senator and author, while Walz will highlight his experience as a Governor and former teacher.

The debate promises to be a pivotal moment in the election, with both candidates aiming to sway undecided voters by showcasing their distinct biographies and policy stances.
