"I am very confident our email practices were in compliance with Indiana's laws," Pence told reporter Friday in Wisconsin.
He also said there is "no comparison whatsoever" between his situation and Clinton's, considering she "mishandled classified information" and "destroyed" email requested by members of Congress and other officials.
