The vice presidential debate will be divided into nine timed segments, 10 minutes each, where the moderator will ask an opening question and each of the vice presidential nominees will have two minutes each to respond. The remaining 6 minutes for each segment will be used by the moderator to delve into deeper discussion of the topic at hand.
