Confirmation of most presidential appointments requires the approval of more than half of the Senators present (U.S. Constitution, Article II, Section 2, Clause 2). Confirmation of a presidential appointment to fill a vacancy in the vice presidency requires the approval of more than half of both Houses of Congress (Amendment XXV, Section 2).
