Fox News: Mike Pence Arrives on Capitol Hill to Cast Tie-Breaking Vote for DeVos Nomination

‘He’ll cast a tie breaking vote for the first time ever’

EXCERPT:

SCOTT: "Mike Pence is Vice President of the U.S., but he is president of the U.S. Senate and he is on his way to Capitol Hill right now. We believe that we have seen the motorcade — yes, there it is. The Vice President's motorcade just getting ready to pull up to the Capitol Building where he will cast a tie-breaking vote for the first time ever on a cabinet nomination. No vice president has been called upon to break a tie on a cabinet nomination until, we believe, today. We believe that the final tally on the nomination of Betsy DeVos to be the secretary of education will be 50-50. Mike Pence, as vice president and president of the Senate will cast the tie-breaking vote, so you know which way that will go."
