On January 6, 2021, then-Vice President Mike Pence presided over the United States Senate to execute his constitutional role in the certification of the election of Joe Biden. As Congress convened, a violent mob, spurred by claims of a stolen election, stormed the U.S. Capitol. Amidst this chaos, Pence faced immense pressure from then-President Donald Trump and his supporters to overturn the election results. However, he upheld his constitutional duty, rejecting the notion that he had the power to alter the electoral outcome. This act, while controversial among some Trump supporters, was widely seen as a pivotal stance for the integrity of the U.S. electoral system.
