· Candidates will stand behind podiums for the duration of the debate, Governor Walz on stage left/screen right and Senator Vance on stage right/screen left.

· Candidates will have two minutes for closing statements. A virtual coin toss was held on Sept. 26. Sen. Vance won and elected to go second with his closing statement.

· No props or pre-written notes will be allowed on stage.

· No topics or questions will be shared in advance with campaigns or candidates.

· Event space will be available for staff and candidate walk-throughs to be scheduled in advance.

· Lights will indicate time left, with numeric countdown: green until 15 seconds; solid yellow until five seconds; flashing red at five seconds; solid red at zero.

· CBS News reserves the right to turn off candidate microphones.

· Moderators will seek to enforce timing agreements.

· For each question, the candidate asked the question will get two minutes to answer and the other candidate will get two minutes to respond. Then, each candidate gets one minute for further rebuttals. At the discretion of the moderators, candidates may get an additional minute each to continue a discussion.
