Can we expect something “different” from tomorrow’s debate between vice presidential nominees Kamala Harris and Mike Pence? – Political pundits seem to think so.
After a disappointing first presidential debate filled with ad-hominem attacks and incessant interruptions (mostly originating from incumbent POTUS Donald Trump), American voters are looking forward to the only VP Debate of the season, hoping to get a clearer idea of the positions of the candidates, and even maybe, a little more order and stronger direction by the moderator.
The debate will unfold amidst one of the most charged-up political atmospheres of recent times: the nation nervously awaits the appointment of the next Supreme Court Justice, riots continue to erupt across the country and our very president has finally succumbed to the Covid-19 pandemic. Meanwhile, polling houses and bookmakers are both making their own predictions on the 2020 elections, and we have all the juicy details for your viewing.
