Vice presidential debate bingo: Play Paste BN's free game during the Walz-Vance showdown
Tim Walz and JD Vance will face off at 9 p.m. ET on Tuesday in what is most likely the last debate of the 2024 campaign.
B-I-N-G-O! The time has come for another round of Paste BN debate bingo, this time for the vice presidential debate. In this game, you can play along as Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and Ohio Sen. JD Vance face off for the first time in the midst of a very close election race.
The 90-minute debate is scheduled to begin at 9 p.m. ET on Tuesday and will air on CBS and stream on the CBS News, app as well as Paramount+ and YouTube, according to CBS. Paste BN will also stream the CBS News Vice Presidential Debate Simulcast on the Paste BN channel, available on most smart televisions and devices.
Like other versions of the game, the Paste BN vice presidential debate bingo will feature a few cards you can download or print and play with family or friends while watching, crossing off squares as the candidates mention them. The first person to reach a bingo, or five squares in a row, is the winner.
The debate will be moderated by “CBS Evening News” anchor Norah O’Donnell and “Face the Nation” moderator Margaret Brennan. Tuesday’s debate will also most likely be the final debate of the 2024 campaign, as no debate is currently scheduled between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump.
In an election as tight as this year's, a good debate performance from Walz or Vance could play a pivotal role in swing states.
While the debate itself is expected to be a rollercoaster, why not make things even more exciting with the Paste BN Vice Presidential Debate Bingo? Here's how to play.

What are the vice presidential debate rules?
Tuesday’s debate will take place at the CBS Broadcast Center in New York City and will feature no audience like the presidential debates earlier this year. Moderators will introduce both candidates, but no opening statements will be read by Walz or Vance.
Two four-minute commercial breaks will be taken during the debate, and no campaign staff will be allowed to interact with the candidates during the breaks. Unlike in both presidential debates, microphones will remain unmuted throughout, but they can be muted by CBS News.
