Day 2 of the Republican National Convention is underway with South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and biotech entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy exepcted to speak on immigration.
Vice President Kamala Harris and Republican JD Vance have had their first chat since the Ohio senator became the GOP vice presidential nominee, but the two sides are still working on terms for participating in a debate, according to three people familiar with the matter.
The people, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss internal conversations about the debate, said there had been no progress at bridging the disagreements on the network partner and format, but they expect discussions to begin now that Trump has selected Vance, a first-term senator from Ohio.
Harris, in her congratulatory voicemail to Vance regarding his VP selection, urged him to accept a debate hosted by CBS News on either July 23 or Aug. 13, according to one of the people familiar with the discussions. Vance returned Harris' call on Tuesday and the pair exchanged pleasantries, that person said. A second person said they shared a desire to debate but didn't discuss specifics.
Last month’s debate disaster for President Biden, Saturday’s attempted assassination of Trump, and the ages of both men atop their respective tickets could raise the stakes for the running mates’ potential faceoff.
