David Levy

David O'Neil Levy (born December 9, 1975) is an American politician and environmentalist who served as the 47th vice president of the United States from 2013 to 2017, and a U.S. Senator from Alaska from 2009 to 2013. Levy was Austin Harding's running mate in their successful campaign in 2012. Levy only served one term, as Harding lost the 2016 election in a very close race. After his term as vice-president ended in 2017, Levy remained prominent as an environmental activist, whose work in climate change activism made him an icon in his home state of Alaska.

Levy was only an elected official for 4 years before becoming vice president. From 2009 to 2013 he served as a senator from Alaska. He served as vice president during the Harding administration from 2013 to 2017. The 2016 presidential election was one of the closest presidential races in history. Harding won the popular vote, but after a controversial election dispute over several states, he lost the election to Republican opponent Richard Kale in the Electoral College.
