    Vance says DNC 'vibes' are not reaching voters

    In an interview on "Fox and Friends" on Wednesday morning, GOP vice presidential nominee Sen. JD Vance said the DNC's "vibes" weren't working and reaching people, and suggested there is division within the Democratic Party.

    "I don't think it's working very well, Ainsley, obviously, I'm not the target audience here, but when you have Barack Obama, the former democratic president of the United States, sitting there and making his big speech, and Kamala Harris is 90 miles away, I think it suggests that their party is not especially unified," he said.
