Takeaways from the Vance-Walz US vice presidential debate

(Reuters) -U.S. Senator JD Vance, Republican Donald Trump's pick as his vice presidential running mate, squared off against Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, who Democrat Kamala Harris tapped to be her No. 2, in a nationally televised debate on Tuesday. The debate is likely the final one of the 2024 presidential campaign, potentially giving it some extra weight ahead of the Nov. 5 election. Vance's advisers said the senator was going to tear into Walz for misrepresenting his military record and letting Minneapolis burn during riots in 2020.
