There is no such office as vice president of the Senate. The Vice President of the United States presides over the Senate and is thus often referred to as the President of the Senate. In that capacity, the Vice President presides over the Senate when it is in session. In that capacity, the Vice President's most notable role is to cast the deciding vote in the event of a tie vote on the floor of the Senate.
