The vice presidential debate between Vance and Walz went through significantly more policy than other debates this cycle but still left many viewers with more questions than answers.
Prior to and during the debate, people across the country were searching on Google about topics at the center of the presidential election, including crime, social security, and abortion.
Google Trends found several specific queries that were widely searched during the 90-minute debate on Tuesday night, with the most searched issue in all 50 states being abortion.
Several of the questions people searched included: “Why was the border bill rejected?” “What percentage of solar panels are made in china?” and “Why is daycare so expensive?” Queries about a fact check for the debate, abortion laws in Minnesota and Texas, and gun laws in Finland, were also widely searched, according to Google Trends.
