With four weeks to go until the US presidential election, Democratic vice presidential candidate Kamala Harris and incumbent Vice President Mike Pence will now meet for a live television debate on Wednesday.
– This debate is perhaps a little more important because the two candidates, not least Joe Biden, are a little older and President Trump is sick. Then a little more attention is paid to the vice presidential candidates, says Dag Blanck.
Two different parts of the United States
The two candidates represent two different parts of the United States, explains Dag Blanck. Kamala Harris comes from California with a father from Jamaica and a mother from India.
– Represents the new demographic trends in the United States. Mike Pence hails from Indiana, a traditional state in the Midwest and a former industrial state, says Dag Blanck.
They seem to be very different personalities, what will we see of it?
– Kamala Harris is a lawyer and has been a prosecutor in California. She is a good debater and continues, we saw it especially in the Kavanaugh audience where she was tough, says Dag Blanck and continues:
– Pence, on the other hand, is much calmer and has a calm appearance, but is very sharp, you could say.
It will be a calmer debate
What will be the difference compared to the presidential debate we saw last week?
– It should be huge. Pence doesn’t have that style at all that Trump had to interrupt and follow. I think they are both very anxious for a more calm and civilized tone.
Which voters are attracting Pence and Harris?
– Harris addresses this group in the middle and to the left. She is not a leftist candidate in the Democratic Party, but she has these problems which are the traditional democratic problems. On health insurance and immigration, she herself is the daughter of immigrants, says Dag Blanck, continuing:
– While Pence is deeply conservative and religious and for him, for example, the issue of abortion is very important.
