Fetterman will use a close captioning system to read moderators' questions as he continues to recover from a stroke in May.
The candidates will meet in Harrisburg on Tuesday night and the Fetterman campaign appeared to tamp down expectations in a memo to reporters on Monday that referred to the fact the Democrat is still recovering from a stroke he suffered in May.
The debate is likely to be contentious, with Fetterman's health one potential topic as the Oz campaign has questioned his ability to serve following his stroke. Oz has also accused Fetterman of supporting"releasing convicted murderers back on the streets." "Debates for state-level races rarely tip elections in one direction or the other. But given the tightness of the polls in the Oz-Fetterman contest, tonight could be an exception," Thomas Gift, founding director of University College London's Centre on U.S. Politics, told"Two men will be on the stage tonight, but the reality is this: all eyes will be on Fetterman," Gift said.
Gift said that Fetterman"doesn't have to win the debate outright, but he does need to prove he can hold his own with Oz. That could be hard, even in the best of circumstances."
