Vice President Mike Pence defended his use of a personal email account to conduct state business while he was Indiana's governor, saying "there's no comparison" between his situation and the controversy surrounding Hillary Clinton's use of a private email server that rocked the 2016 presidential campaign.
"There's no comparison whatsoever," Pence said following an event he did with House Speaker Paul Ryan in Janesville, Wisconsin, when asked about whether his situation gave him any sympathy for the Democratic presidential nominee.
Pence used a personal email when he discussed issues like the resettling of Syrian refugees and other matters on an AOL account that was hacked in a phishing scam, according to emails released Thursday.
