Vance draws small crowd at youth organization event

blick.ch (German)

US Vice President J. D. Vance faced public ridicule after speaking to a sparsely attended event. Vance addressed the right-wing youth organization Turning Point at the Akins Ford Arena, which has a capacity of 8,500 but was less than a quarter full. Critics mocked the low turnout, with some suggesting senior bingo events attract larger crowds. Turning Point organizers blamed "leftist groups" for reserving tickets and not attending, while Vance also faced disruptive heckling during his speech.
