"Biden is looking good, I think he's very confident about his answers. I think he's been very knowledgeable in what he's said so far and it's good that he reiterated: facts matter," said Ed Harbison, Georgia state senator.
Harbison added the debates are important for swaying independent and undecided voters. According to recent polls there are less people who have made up their mind for this election than originally forecast.
