If the Vice President remains in office until the end of his/her term, he/she is succeeded by the winner of the Vice Presidential election. The winner of every Vice Presidential election to date (1804-2012) has been the running mate of the winner of the presidential election, but it is possible for someone else to be elected Vice President, especially if no presidential or vice presidential candidate gets enough electoral votes and the House and Senate are controlled by different parties.

If the vice presidency is vacated during a term due to the death, resignation or removal from office of either the President or Vice President, the President nominates a new Vice President. A majority vote in favor of the nomination is required from both Houses of Congress before the nominee can take office.
