Congress needs to vote for vp?

*************

I believe it’s A 25th Amendment thing, when there is a vacancy.

I don’t know the exact details.

During the Watergate Nixon takedown era, VP Agnew resigned.

Ford became VP with congressional approval, later Nixon resigned, Ford became President and Nelson Rockefeller became VP after both the Senate & House voted to confirm.

Rockefeller remained VP until Ford was replaced by Carter after losing the 1976 Presidential Election.

Walter Mondale became VP.

I ‘think’ the open convention allows the delegates to vote for someone other than the current P/VP. this is what odumbo is calling for; that they find someone to replace Kammy and then mandate internally that the delegates vote them in instead.
