He also expressed his satisfaction with the FBI decision to reopen investigation against Clinton.
“@realDonaldTrump and I commend the FBI for reopening an investigation into Clinton's personal email server because no one is above the law,” Pence said.

On Friday, FBI Director James Comey told members of the US Congress in a letter that the bureau has found additional emails relevant to its investigation into Clinton’s use, as secretary of state from 2009 to 2013, of a private email server. FBI investigators will determine whether the newly uncovered emails contain classified information, Comey wrote.
Clinton has been criticized for using the private server and email account for official business during her tenure as the United States' top diplomat. In July, Comey described Clinton’s conduct as extremely careless but said it did not warrant criminal charges.
