Other: both deliver rehearsed talking points. Harris can have the stern commanding voice of a former prosecutor so has an advantage over Pence in attacks just on the vibe. Pence sounds like a middle manager of a soup company who also teaches Sunday School.

He's a middleweight while she barely qualifies for lightweight. Should be a mismatch.

I hope there is something that they are supposed to look at to see their time elapsing. It doesn't make sense for the moderator to interrupt them without warning with "thank you ...... " otherwise.

Yup basically a tie no one's mind is going to be changed by that
Image-wise
Pence looks and sounds conservative and old fashion
Harris comes across in contrast as liberal and modern
which is basically what they are so, yeah, no big deal

They also both did that thing that I think actual people find insufferable that politicians do "Thank you so much for the question, now I am going to say exactly what I want and ignore the question completely".
Pence did the very male thing of just talking over the clock and the women, and Kamala must have made at least 15 meme faces while Pence was talking.

Pence did that it seemed like every time! Way more than Kamala did. It seemed like she went to that tactic later in the debate.

I didn't watch it but evidently the star of the debate was a fly? And it now has > 50 twitter accounts.

The fact that it happened was all too poetic.

The VP debate is the biggest non-event of every election. Even the things that get remembered (Sarah Palin's wink, James Stockdale's hearing aid, "You, senator, are no Jack Kennedy") have no impact on the election.

This VP debate was the second-most watched VP debate in history, only bested by the infamous Biden v Palin debate back in 2008. Including this one, the Top 3 have all featured one female VP candidate. And this year’s VP debate could also be unique in that it still could be the last debate we see until Election Night, since the second Presidential debate won’t happen now and the third one is still somewhat up in the air.
