An exciting duel is looming in the political arena of the United States: On October 1, 2024, vice presidential candidates JD Vance and Tim Wals will face off against each other. While Donald Trump, the former reality TV star and experienced debater, is avoiding a second TV duel with Kamala Harris, the nation's eyes are focused on this exciting vice duel.
JD Vance, the Republican candidate, has had an impressive career. He grew up in modest circumstances, struggled through college, worked for an investment firm and became a best-selling author. He represents the American dream ideal and emphasizes that he will never forget where he comes from. However, connecting with voters remains a challenge; a viral video from a donut shop shows that interest in him is limited.
On the other side is Tim Wals, Kamala Harris's vice president and governor of Minnesota. Wals, who once worked as a teacher and football coach, is seen as the down-to-earth complement to Harris' liberal profile. However, in a campaign marked by scandals and personal challenges, Wals recently uncovered a 30-year-old mug shot of himself showing him drunk driving. Despite these hurdles, he is ahead in the polls, with 45% positive ratings compared to Vance's 40%.
The upcoming TV debate could be decisive for the November election. While the polls show Wals is currently more popular, the pressure is on Vance, who also needs Trump's support to consolidate his position. With less than six weeks until the US presidential election, the duel between the running mates will be one of the last opportunities to reach voters and win crucial votes.
