Vance-Walz VP debate: Why the vice presidential debate could matter more than history suggests
Briefly

Vice presidential picks have often served as attack dogs in debates, especially post-Trump era where norms have shifted, making the role less predictable.
Walz has gained national attention by characterizing his Republican rivals as 'weird,' while Vance has targeted immigration policies, challenging narratives on Haitian immigrants.
The vice president has a critical constitutional role, presiding over the Senate and stepping in as president if necessary, a situation that has occurred nine times.
Kamala Harris' record-breaking tie-breaking votes emphasize the significant legislative power the vice president can wield, marking a shift in the expectations for the role.
