69% Informative

Tim Walz came out looking nervous, slightly deer-in-the-headlights, and far less glossy than his rival, Ohio senator JD Vance .

Walz had an especially bad moment when asked to explain his repeated falsehoods about having been in China during the Tiananmen Square student-led protests in 1989 .

The self-assured and smooth Vance , by contrast, may have won the debate on points, but may have prevailed on tone and presentation.
