What Went Down During The Vice Presidential Debate

According to a late September poll from Monmouth University, 60 percent of registered voters felt at least somewhat confident that the 2020 election will be conducted fairly and accurately, compared to 39 percent that were not confident. However, in the same poll, 80 percent of registered voters expressed concern that election meddling could undermine the integrity of the results, compared to just 19 percent who were not concerned.

So, uh, Pence hasn’t answered the question about peaceful transfer of power…

In a worrying shift from the last debate poll, whether people think the election will be fair is increasingly partisan. While the gap between Biden and Trump supporters was just about ten points last time, it’s grown to 30 points (!) in just a week: 70 percent of Biden supporters now think it will be fair, but just 40 percent of Trump supporters do. That’s a huge change.
