Who is the president of the senate and when may that person vote?

Answer 1

The Vice President of the United States shall be President of the Senate, but shall have no vote, unless they be equally divided. (quote from the Constitution), In other words, he can vote to break a tie.

The current Vice President of the United States is Joe Biden.

Answer 2

Well, it depends on which senate you are talking about. You could be talking about the Belgian senate, the New Zealand Senate, the Canadian Senate, the Irish Senate, the Italian Senate, the Dutch Senate, the Polish Senate, the Romanian Senate, the Russian Senate, the Spanish Senate or the French Senate.

(Australia and the United States also have a senate, but who really cares about those silly countries, anyway?)

Answer 3

Assuming you are referring to the U.S. Senate, it depends on who you define as the "leader". The President of the U.S. Senate is the Vice President of the United States. He has no vote, unless the Senate is evenly divided. The Senate is also charged with electing from their own membership a President Pro Tempore, who is the presiding officer of the Senate in the absence of the Vice President. Traditionally this is the most senior (in terms of incumbency) of the majority caucus. The President Pro Tempore can vote at any time.

Both the majority and minority caucuses also elect their own leaders who are unrestricted on when they can vote.

The president of the Senate, who is also the vice president of the United states, can vote only in the case of a tie vote.
