Washington Post published this video item, entitled “The vice-presidential debate between Kamala Harris and Mike Pence – 10/7 (FULL LIVE STREAM)” – below is their description.
Vice President Pence and Democratic vice-presidential nominee Kamala Harris will meet onstage at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City on Oct. 7. Susan Page, the Washington bureau chief at USA Today, will moderate.
Public health experts have expressed concern at the decision by both presidential campaigns and the debate commission to move ahead with in-person events less than a week after President Trump tested positive for the novel coronavirus. The first presidential debate resulted in at least 11 positive cases by people involved in preparations.
The Post’s Libby Casey will anchor live, uninterrupted coverage and she will be joined by reporters Joyce Koh, Rhonda Colvin, James Hohmann, Hannah Jewell, Robert Costa, Amber Phillips, Jeremy Bowers, Philip Bump and Eugene Scott for analysis before and after the debate.

The territory of modern Utah has been inhabited by various indigenous groups for thousands of years, including the ancient Puebloans, the Navajo, and the Ute. The Spanish were the first Europeans to arrive in the mid-16th century, though the region’s difficult geography and climate made it a peripheral part of New Spain and later Mexico.
Disputes between the dominant Mormon community and the federal government delayed Utah’s admission as a state; only after the outlawing of polygamy was it admitted as the 45th, in 1896.
A little more than half of all Utahns are Mormons, the vast majority of whom are members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church), which has its world headquarters in Salt Lake City. Utah is the only state where most of the population belongs to a single church. The LDS Church greatly influences Utahn culture, politics, and daily life, though since the 1990s the state has become more religiously diverse as well as secular.
The state has a highly diversified economy, with major sectors including transportation, education, information technology and research, government services, and mining and a major tourist destination for outdoor recreation.
A 2012 Gallup national survey found Utah overall to be the “best state to live in the future” based on 13 forward-looking measurements including various economic, lifestyle, and health-related outlook metrics.
