WASHINGTON — Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz has agreed to a vice presidential debate on Oct. 1 hosted by CBS News.

In a statement, CBS News said it reached out to both presidential campaigns, but it’s unclear if the Republican vice presidential candidate, Ohio Sen. J.D. Vance, will participate in the debate in New York City.

The Donald Trump campaign did not respond to States Newsroom’s request for comment.

“See you on October 1, JD.,” Walz wrote on X, responding to CBS.

CBS News gave both campaigns four dates to choose among for a vice presidential debate — Sept. 17, Sept. 24, Oct. 1 and Oct. 8.

Trump and Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris are scheduled for a presidential debate Sept. 10, hosted by ABC News.

The first presidential debate, hosted by CNN on June 27, led to President Joe Biden suspending his campaign after a disastrous performance that rattled his party’s confidence that the president could beat Trump in November.
