Get ready for the Vice Presidential Debate! Tonight at 8 p.m. ET, Fox News will simulcast the CBS News debate, featuring a face-off between Republican nominee Sen. JD Vance of Ohio and Democratic nominee Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz. While vice presidential debates are often considered the undercard of a presidential election, this year’s event has heightened stakes. With polls showing a tight race and only five weeks left until Election Day, any major moment or gaffe could significantly impact the outcome.
The latest polls offer a glimpse into the race’s current landscape. Trump edges out Harris in North Carolina, a state that hasn’t voted Democratic since 2008. However, a Pennsylvania survey finds Harris narrowly leading Trump, with the pollster identifying her ‘biggest weakness’.
Beyond the polls, the campaign trail is buzzing with controversy. Rep. Mast is demanding the VA fire staffers over a potential breach of Vance and Walz’s medical records. The FBI is investigating possible foreign interference. Meanwhile, the NRA has launched a $7-figure ad campaign targeting Sen. Sherrod Brown in Ohio, urging voters to ‘vote like your life depends on it’.
Beyond the national stage, local and regional stories are also making headlines. In Montana, GOP Senate Candidate Sheehy claims he was serving in Afghanistan while Jon Tester was ‘eating lobbyist steak’, highlighting contrasting narratives. In California, Elon Musk compares Gov. Newsom to ‘The Joker’ following the banning of voter ID requirements.
The debate itself will be taking place amidst allegations of lying against Harris’ running mate. Additionally, news about the impact of the port workers strike on inflation and the arrests of Martha’s Vineyard illegal immigrants are adding to the already heated political climate.
