Tonight Gov. Mike Pence, and Senator Tim Kaine will battle it out in the Vice Presidential debate on CNN. In 2014, Pence was one of four governors to receive an A grade from Cato Institute on their performance.

At the time Cato Institute wrote:

Mike Pence of Indiana has been frugal on spending and a champion tax cutter. He signed bills to cut individual-income-tax rates 5 percent (the current rate of 3.4 percent will fall to 3.23 percent in 2017) and repeal the inheritance tax. He also approved a corporate-income-tax rate cut and a major reduction in property taxes on businesses.
