Thank you.
No, sir.
That would be the reason for the Vice President to be in the State Senate.
He's more or less hosted there.
As soon as he goes through, he'll be able to depart.
The Vice President is not going to be on the platform with you guys.
He'll be in the State Senate.
In fact, all four of you.
