Vice presidential debate moderator Elaine Quijano is being accused of bias for cutting off Republican Mike Pence during an attack on Hillary Clinton's email scandal, as Trump's campaign calls Democrat Tim Kaine 'sexist' for ignoring questions presented to him her.

Quijano, who is a New York-based CBS News correspondent and a second-generation Filipino-American, is the first Asian-American journalist to moderate a national debate.

The 42-year-old sat behind the desk Tuesday evening to moderate the debate between Kaine and Pence in Farmville, Virginia.

Quijano criticized Pence for failing to answer questions, as he was unable to speak without interruptions from Kaine during much of the debate.

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump's campaign manager, Kellyanne Conway, also accused Kaine on Twitter of sexism for 'ignoring' Quijano's questions.

Quijano, who is originally from Chicago, seemingly overstepped her role of moderator when she pressed the Indiana governor about whether illegal immigrants would be 'forcibly removed' under Trump's plan as president.

'Governor, how would these millions of undocumented immigrants leave? Would they forcibly be removed?' she asked.

In addition, Quijano appeared to support Kaine during his criticism of the billionaire real estate mogul when she answered back to him saying 'right' in agreement.

Kaine said: 'This is important, Elaine. When a guy running for president will not support the troops, not support veterans, not support teachers…'

'Right,' Quijano, who attended the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, responded back to Kaine before he could even finish his remark.

Political commentator David Axelrod took to Twitter (above) and said that Quijano was 'intent' on 'running through her questions, even when significant exchanges' were happening

He also wrote (above): '@TimKaine is interrupting more than @Mike_Pence, which I don't think is serving him well. Scoring more on positives.'

However, Kaine also overran Quijano in the debate and took control by speaking over her and Pence.

She later stopped Pence before his discussion of the Clinton Foundation was over despite Kaine having plenty of time to defend the charity and attack the Trump Foundation.

A New York Times reporter, Nick Confessore, then asked Conway in a tweet (above): 'Is it sexist when Kaine interrupts Pence constantly or just what debaters do to win debates?'

Conway, who said she appreciated that Pence was 'very tough, but very polite' during the debate, accused Kaine on Twitter of sexism for 'ignoring' Quijano's questions.

'How many times has @TimKaine ignored and interrupted the female moderator tonight? #sexist,' Conway tweeted Tuesday night.

A New York Times reporter, Nick Confessore, then asked Conway in a tweet: 'Is it sexist when Kaine interrupts Pence constantly or just what debaters do to win debates?'

Conway called Kaine out on Twitter (above) for 'flipflopping' over whether former president Bill Clinton should have resigned over the Monica Lewinsky scandal

In another tweet, Conway took aim at Kaine replying to questions with 'buzzwords.'

Conway replied to Confessore by declaring Kaine's debate strategy 'unsuccessful'.

'Actually, it's just unsuccessful. Hillary must be none too pleased her husband and her running mate are stepping all over her message,' she replied back to Confessore.

Conway called Kaine out for 'flipflopping' over whether former president Bill Clinton should have resigned over the Monica Lewinsky scandal.

She linked back to an article that pointed out Kaine said in 2002 he thought the president should have resigned.
