One of the Vice President's duties is that when the Senate votes on a bill and it is a tie, he can break the tie.
So, for example, from 2001 to 2003, the US Senate was 50 Democrats and 50 Republicans. When a bill was voted on and came up exactly 50-50, the Vice President (Dick Cheney at the time, a Republican) would break the tie.
