Former Vice President Mike Pence said he'd be open to having a female vice president- but wouldn't say if he'd dine with her alone.
Pence appeared at a town hall with Leland Vittert on NewsNation Wednesday and was asked about his much-talked-about deal the Republican struck with his wife Karen to never dine alone with another woman.
Vittert then asked if that same rule would apply with a woman vice president - as presidents and vice presidents often have official lunches as part of their schedule.
Pence answered 'you better believe it' when asked if he'd pick a female running mate, noting how one of his lieutenant governors in Indiana was a woman when he was serving as the state's governor.
To the second question, Pence explained the arrangement he made with his wife: 'Let me say it's a promise my wife and I made to one another,' the 2024 Republican hopeful said. 'I didn't think it was particularly controversial.'
