Key issues for presidential debate [Video]

Hours ahead of Tuesday night’s high-stakes presidential debate between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump, WISN 12 News asked Milwaukee voters what they wanted to hear from the candidates on the debate stage. “I’m expecting Kamala Harris to treat it like a job interview,” voter Terrance Reeves said. “I’m hoping to see some more policy,” said Brady Wirkes, a law student at Marquette University. “I think both of the candidates have a lot of gray area and it’s unsure what both of them are going to be doing if they were to be the president.” Policy a consistent answer from Milwaukee voters Tuesday morning. Voter Tyler Klein is hoping the name-calling and on-stage bickering is kept to a minimum. “I really hope that it’s something that’s more productive than we’ve seen in the past,” he said. Susan Gebhardt agrees.”I’m hoping to hear something different this time. I would like to see them not maybe backstab and point out everybody’s faults and maybe get to the topics and really have some plans on what they’re going to do,” she said. As for whether the debate will sway voters’ decisions in November, 12 News received a mix of responses. “I already know my decision, so Im set with that,” Gebhardt said. Marquette University student Haley Olson said, “It definitely could; I mean, there’s always a possibility.” Regardless of voters’ positions, each agreed they want to see a productive 90 minutes on the debate stage Tuesday night.
