Republican vice presidential nominee JD Vance and his Democratic counterpart, Tim Walz, are set to participate in a debate hosted by CBS on October 1 after the Ohio senator accepted the invitation Thursday, a day after the Minnesota governor did the same. Vance also proposed an additional vice presidential debate, writing that he has accepted CNN’s invitation to debate on September 18. CNN has reached out to the Kamala Harris campaign for comment. “The American people deserve as many debates as possible, which is why President Trump has challenged Kamala to three of them already. Not only do I accept the CBS debate on October 1st, I accept the CNN debate on September 18th as well. I look forward to seeing you at both!” Vance posted on social media Thursday. Walz accepted the CBS invitation in a social media post a day earlier, writing, “See you on October 1, JD.” CBS News offered the candidates two dates in September and two dates in October as options for a debate in New York City. In May, before President Joe Biden dropped out of the race, Harris accepted an invitation from CBS to debate Donald Trump’s future running mate on either July 23 or August 13. Trump said on his Truth Social platform at the time that his campaign had accepted an invitation for his future running mate to participate in a Fox News debate.
