Jonathan Hayes (D-NM), currently serving as Vice President of the United States, and former Governor of New Mexico.
Hayes, Secretary of State of New Mexico since 2003, became Governor upon Bill Richardson's confirmation as Secretary of Commerce. Serving since 2009, Hayes declined to run for re-election in 2010. With the Vice Presidency vacant during the summer and fall of 2010 due to Joe Biden's resignation under the shadow of scandal, Speaker-turned-President, Jack Magruder, tapped Hayes to be the caretaker Vice President. Hayes was confirmed unanimously by the Senate on November 26, 2010.
With the Senate tied 16-16 in 2011, Hayes gave Democrats the majority.
