Twitter went into an uproar and multiple news outlets ran headlines suggesting that Mike Pence had entered the 2024 race on Monday evening after a “statement of candidacy” was filed with the FEC on his behalf, but a spokesperson for the former Vice President confirmed that Pence did not file paperwork to run for president, Fox News reports.
“Former Vice President Mike Pence did not file to run for President today,” spokesman Devin O’Malley tweeted, later suggesting that someone “pranked” pundits and journalists.
A statement of candidacy was filed for “Mr Mike Richard Pence” at 5:12 p.m. ET on Monday. Previous filings with the FEC have listed “Michael” as Pence’s first name, not “Mike.”
