Some watched at campaign headquarters, others in private homes, but many tuned in to the second presidential debate.

Volunteers for Barack Obama watched the debate at his campaign headquarters in Charleston.

The Mccain campaign did not hold an organized event but said supporters were holding events in their private homes.

Supporters of Obama say the town hall style debate allows the candidates to talk about the issues and not sling a lot of mud. Mccain supporters said their candidate has the record of reform.
