Vice President Mike Pence and challenger Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) both evaded a question on presidential succession during Wednesday night’s vice presidential debate in Salt Lake City, Utah.
When asked by moderator Susan Page about whether they had discussed a succession plan with either of their running mates—President Donald Trump, 74, or Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden, 77—in the event of disability while serving as president, Pence and Harris completely sidestepped the question.
