Republican vice presidential nominee JD Vance and Democratic nominee Tim Walz will debate Tuesday night in New York City, for their sole face-to-face showdown of the 2024 election.
CBS News is hosting the debate, but CNBC, NBC News, and other media outlets are also broadcasting the 90-minute-long event, which is set to kick off at 9 p.m. ET.
The debate is being moderated by “CBS Evening News” anchor Norah O’Donnell and “Face the Nation” host Margaret Brennan.
Vance, a 40-year-old who represents Ohio in the U.S. Senate, was tapped as the running mate of former President Donald Trump shortly before the Republican National Convention in July.
Vice President Kamala Harris, who became the Democratic nominee after President Joe Biden quit the election in mid-July, picked the Minnesota governor Walz as her running mate in early August.
Trump and Harris have debated just once this election cycle, on Sept. 10.
Harris has said she is willing to debate Trump again before Election Day. But the Republican so far has ruled that out.
