WASHINGTON (AP) — Vice President Mike Pence has called Vice President-elect Kamala Harris to offer his congratulations.
That's according to two people familiar with the conversation who were granted anonymity to share details of a private conversation.
One of the people familiar with the Thursday afternoon conversation described it as a “good call,” with Pence congratulating his successor and offering assistance.
The call comes less than a week before President-elect Joe Biden and Harris are set to take office, next Wednesday.
It marks the first contact between elected officials from the outgoing and incoming administrations.
