Former Vice President Mike Pence has left the door open to a potential 2024 presidential run, but has not yet made any formal announcement. This comes as the revelation of potentially classified materials found in think tank offices formerly used by President Joe Biden has prompted questions on how it compares to the seizure of hundreds of documents marked as classified from Mar-a-Lago, the Florida residence of former President Donald Trump.
According to Richard Sauber, special counsel to the Biden transition team, a small number of documents with classified markings were discovered on November 2, 2022 in a locked closet at the Penn Biden Center for Diplomacy and Global Engagement. The documents were found as Biden’s personal attorneys were clearing out the offices.
Pence’s lack of urgency about an announcement reflects the broader dynamics inside the Republican Party. The 2024 presidential race has yet to dominate discussions among rank-and-file voters and major donors, particularly with the new House Republican majority in the political spotlight.
The potential discovery of classified materials in the offices of the former president has raised questions about the security of the documents and the potential implications of their mishandling. It remains to be seen how the situation will be addressed and if Pence will eventually make a formal announcement about his potential 2024 presidential run.
