The current vice president Joe Biben and vice president nominee Paul Ryan will debate about both domestic and foreign policies for 90 minutes. Martha Raddatz, the Senior Foreign Affairs correspondent from ABC News, will act as the moderator.
Tonight's debate is expected to be worth watching. Republican VP hopeful Ryan has been leading in polls as the one who will win the debate. Policymic reported that independent voters believe Ryan will do better by a 42% to 25% margin. You can make your vote for who you think the winner is tonight in the poll below.
PolicyMic Pundit Nathan Stringer predicted that "If all goes well, tonight should feel like a college sophomore finally confronting his wacky uncle about politics."
"The nephew, Paul Ryan, is both intelligent and promising - but he's also a college sophomore. The uncle, Joe Biden, has always seemed just a bit off from the rest of the family and frequently makes inappropriate comments and shares embarrassing family stories."
The format of tonight's debate will be more laid back than the previous debate between President Barack Obama and Governor Mitt Romney. Ryan and Biden will be seated instead of standing behind a podium.
Live coverage will be provided by ABCNews.com and YouTube Politics.
