Vance and Walz Square Off in Vice Presidential Debate

Senator JD Vance of Ohio and Governor Tim Walz of Minnesota faced each other in a much-anticipated vice-presidential debate. The two candidates exchanged views on foreign policy, climate change, and immigration. While both showcased their different styles—Vance with a polished, television-ready approach and Walz with a more down-to-earth, though sometimes hesitant, demeanor—neither delivered a standout moment that would significantly impact the race.


Both Vance and Walz successfully followed the standard rule of vice-presidential debates: avoid causing harm to their respective running mates. The debate left viewers with contrasting perspectives, but little that could tip the scales.
