WASHINGTON – As the tenure of incumbent United States Presodent Joe Biden winds up, Mike Pence has said that the peaceful transfer of power is the hallmark of our democracy and today, members of both parties in the House and Senate along with the vice president certified the election of our new president and vice president without controversy or objection.
I welcome the return of order and civility to these historic proceedings and offer my most sincere congratulations and prayers to President Donald J. Trump and Vice President J. D. Vance on their election to lead this great Nation.
I also commend the members of the House, Senate and the Vice President who did their duty under the Constitution of the United States, it being particularly admirable that Vice President Harris would preside over the certification of a presidential election that she lost.
God bless our new President and Vice President and their families and may God continue to bless the United States of America.
Precise Post recalls that Mike Pence is an American politician and attorney who served as the 48th vice president of the United States from 2017 to 2021 under President Donald Trump. Before becoming vice president, he served as the governor of Indiana from 2013 to 2017. Pence was also a member of the U.S. House of Representatives from 2001 to 2013, representing Indiana’s 2nd and 6th congressional districts.
Known for his conservative views, Pence is a member of the Republican Party and is closely associated with evangelical Christianity. During his vice presidency, he was often seen as a loyal supporter of President Trump, although he made headlines for his role on January 6, 2021, when he presided over the certification of the 2020 election results despite pressure from Trump and his allies to overturn the outcome.
After leaving office, Pence has remained an influential figure within the Republican Party, and there has been speculation about his potential run for president in future elections.
