Your vote is your voice, your right and your power. A “no” vote from you is a “yes” for the candidate you don’t want to hold public office. This is evident in the local, state and federal elections.

About last night at the only vice presidential debate, Virginia Senator Tim Kaine and Indiana Governor Mike Pence clashed a couple of times. Democrat Tim Kaine said Donald Trump is too fond of Russian leaders during the debate at Longwood University in Farmville, Virginia. Kaine and Pence clashed over Syria and Russia, with criticizing Trump’s praise for Russian President Vladimir Putin. Indiana Governor Pence argued that Hillary Clinton’s email controversy compromised U.S. national security. The two nominees also crashed over the work of the Clinton Foundation and the Trump Foundation.

The debate got a little heated at times as Kaine and Pence talked over each other and being admonished several times by moderator Elaine Qiuhano. Kaine accused Donald Trump of not paying taxes for years. He said the GOP presidential candidate was hurting the U.S. military. Meanwhile, Pence argued that Democrat presidential candidate Hillary Clinton’s email controversy compromised U.S. national security.

Now the results of the CNN/ORC poll on last night’s vice presidential debate:

The instant poll finds that 48-percent of people surveyed say Republican Mike Pence, Donald Trump’s running mate, made a better showing than Democrat Tim Kaine. Forty-two percent of people surveyed say Hillary Clinton’s running mate did a better job.

Also, according to an online Drudge Report poll shows an overwhelming victory for the Indiana governor, with 95 percent of those taking part saying Pence came out on top.
