Vice President Mike Pence and Sen Kamala Harris meet in Utah for the VP discussion and you can broadcast it live.
This story is part of the election 2020, CNET coverage to vote in November.
The Vice Presidential debate on Wednesday could be the final debate of this election cycle. President Donald Trump tested positive for COVID-19 after the first presidential debate last week, throwing the rest of the debate schedule into doubt. If Trump does not recover quickly from the virus, the two presidential talks planned for later this month will be well canceled. Despite Vice President Mike Pence’s revelations to the White House, the Vice President debate continues this week, in which multiple staff conducted positive tests.
The VP discussion between Pence and Democratic Vice President nominee Sen Kamala Harris will take place on Wednesday, October 7 at 9 p.m. ET (6 p.m. PT) at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City.
The discussion runs for 90 minutes and consists of nine 10 minute sections with no trade breaks. USA Today’s Washington Bureau Chief Susan Page moderates. Pence and Harris sit down for a discussion and are placed 12 feet apart. Among the topics discussed were the coronavirus pandemic, which infected 7.4 million Americans, racial unrest, the struggling economy and the urgent rise after the death of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg and the urgent Amy Connie Barrett nomination. Empty seat.

Why only one moderator for discussion?
In previous years, two or three people shared moderator duties for discussions. With this year’s coronavirus epidemic, there will be a single moderator in each discussion to reduce the number of people in the room.
