WASHINGTON - Former Indiana Governor Mike Pence is running for president.
Pence officially announced his candidacy for 2024 on Wednesday morning.
"I believe in the American people, and I have faith God is not done with America yet. Together, we can bring this Country back, and the best days for the Greatest Nation on Earth are yet to come," said Pence in a social media post.
Pence, a Republican, served as the 48th Vice President of the United States from 2017 to 2021 under President Donald Trump. He was the 50th governor of Indiana from 2013 to 2017, and also served as a member of the U.S. House of Representatives from 2001 to 2013.
