Who is the current Vice President of the United States?

• A. JD Vance
• B. Mike Pence
• C. Kamala Harris
• D. Nancy Pelosi

Answer: (A)

The idea being tested is who holds the role of Vice President and how that position is determined. The Vice President is the second-in-command in the executive branch and serves as the President of the Senate, with duties that include breaking ties in that chamber. They are elected on the same ticket as the President, meaning the person with the Vice President role is the one paired with the current President on the ballot. Right now, Kamala Harris holds the office of Vice President, serving in that role in the current administration. JD Vance is a U.S. Senator from Ohio and has not been Vice President. Mike Pence was Vice President in a previous administration, and Nancy Pelosi is the Speaker of the House, a different leadership position.
