SAINT PAUL — The debate between Tim Walz and JD Vance began with a focus on Donald Trump's record in office as the vice-presidential hopefuls were quick to take an attack dog approach to defending their presidential partner on the ticket.
Republicans and Democrats are both hoping Tuesday's matchup will demonstrate their vice-presidential candidate's ability to connect with voters in battleground states that will play a critical role in deciding the U.S. election in November. Those states swung Republican when Trump won the 2016 election, and in 2020 they helped put President Joe Biden in the White House.
Formerly a Trump critic, Vance was elected to the U.S. Senate in 2022 after becoming one of the former president's loudest supporters. "Vance is brilliant and I’m expecting good things from him," said Alec Beck, chairman of the fifth congressional district for the Republican Party of Minnesota, at a watch party in New Hope.
