As the vice presidential candidates Ohio Sen. JD Vance and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz gear up for their upcoming debate, the official rules have been announced by the news channel hosting the event. The debate is set to be a 90-minute affair with no opening statements or studio audience present.
The network has stated that they reserve the right to mute the candidates' microphones, although unlike the presidential debates, the microphones will generally remain on. Walz will be positioned on the right side of the screen for viewers, with Vance on the left. As the candidate from the incumbent party, Walz will be the first to be introduced on stage.
