    NewsNation anchor Chris Cuomo will moderate a town hall with Vance, which will air on their station and on the social media platform X.

    NewsNation said it has editorial control of the event, and viewers “will have the opportunity to pre-submit questions for Senator Vance through X.”

    The one-hour town hall will be filmed from Detroit on Oct. 24 starting at 8 p.m. ET.

    “We are honored to bring viewers a town hall with the Vice Presidential nominee for the Republican ticket,” NewsNation President of News and Politics Cherie Grzech said in a statement.

    “In this critical election year, the greater the number of opportunities for voters to hear directly from the candidates, the better it is for everyone,” Grzech continued.

    The network said it has extended the invitation for Walz to participate in a similar type of event.
