PO2 Robert M.
The Senate voted Tuesday to confirm Michigan billionaire and Republican donor Betsy DeVos as education secretary in the narrowest approval of a Cabinet nominee in the nation’s history. The Democratic caucus of 48 senators voted against DeVos, as did two Republicans, setting up a 50-50 tie that was broken with a vote from Vice President Pence.

PO2 Robert M. - heard on the news, that VP Pence would more than likely have to be the tie breaking vote.
