And then, oops, it seems it was a senior moment, maybe?

Grassley's office clarifies that he was meaning to explain what would happen if Pence had to step away during Wednesday's proceedings to count Electoral College votes. "Every indication we have is that the vice president will be there," Grassley's office said.

VP Pence is still expected to preside tomorrow, according to his office. https://t.co/Apigu7VAN4
