The third thing to be noted was the firmer control and ignoring of Harris' protests by the moderator.
The end result of this was an imbalance of speaking time in favor of Pence. This speaking time advantage did not result in an explanation of the disastrous non-handling of the Covid-19 pandemic with pure Covid-19 deaths heading toward 300,000 and infections in the USA toward 2 million. This may explain the peregrinations of the fly toward a natural environment of horse or bull or human puckey, carefully coiffured.
