The final (scheduled) debate of the 2024 presidential election happens tonight in New York City, where Governor Tim Walz and Senator J.D. Vance will face off in the first and only vice presidential debate,

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and Ohio Sen. JD Vance will meet in New York City tonight during the CBS News Vice Presidential Debate.

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Senator JD Vance of Ohio are facing off in New York City for their first and only scheduled vice presidential debate.

The vice presidential showdown on Tuesday, Oct. 1, is expected to be the last debate before the November election.

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Ohio Senator JD Vance will make the case for their respective candidates five weeks before Election Day.

For Walz to win, he has to deliver a defense of who he is that doesn’t cast him into becoming this crazy liberal that the Trump-Vance ticket wants him to be portrayed as. If the feeling about Tim Walz after the debate is that he’s Coach Walz, a regular Midwestern guy, that means he won, straight up.

More than a dozen VA staffers accessed the medical records of vice presidential nominees JD Vane and Tim Walz, sources told USA TODAY.

Gov. Tim Walz has been flying under the radar with limited national press access. Will the Vice Presidential debate on Tuesday be a turning point for him?

Former Rep. Patrick Murphy (D-PA) who was elected to the House of Representatives in 2006 along with Walz, told the Daily Beast Tuesday that not only will he be rooting for his ex-roomie to defeat JD Vance in Tuesday night’s debate, but former colleagues on the other side of the aisle will be, too.

Fla., said he believed Ohio Sen. JD Vance would be able to focus on issues during the vice presidential debate, and that he believes Minnesota Gov. Walz with try to "muck up" the discussion with personal attacks.
