With only weeks to go until the presidential election, the vice-presidential candidates will debate each other in their first and only scheduled debate.
Sen. JD Vance of Ohio and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz are taking a break from the campaign trail and heading to the debate stage at the CBS Broadcast Center in New York City on Tuesday, Oct. 1.
The debate comes three weeks after Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump met for the first time and hashed out the issues in their presidential debate in Philadelphia on Tuesday, Sept. 10.
