Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and his team are gearing up for the upcoming vice presidential debate against Ohio Sen. JD Vance. They have established a 'debate camp' in Harbor Springs, Michigan, a picturesque waterfront resort town located about a four-hour drive from Detroit. The governor is expected to stay at the camp until the day of the debate, with a brief break for a campaign event in Ann Arbor, Michigan, where he plans to attend a University of Michigan Wolverines football game.
According to sources, the debate prep sessions for Gov. Walz have been relatively informal so far, with mock debates yet to commence. However, full rehearsals are slated to begin over the weekend, with Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg stepping in to portray Sen. Vance. Buttigieg has been actively involved in both in-person and virtual debate sessions and will also join the team in Harbor Springs.
