- ↑ Veep has never revealed the specific date that Selina became President. However, there were hints left across the series that can help us infer the date, such as: Dan saying in Crate that it's January. The footage of Selina's mother in Kissing Your Sister taking a tour of the west wing was dated January 28, 2016. Selina still has her short hair, so it is right around when she was sworn in. Richard saying in Library that Selina was in office for less than a year, meaning she was sworn in after January 20th. If you take all these into consideration, Selina was sworn in between January 21 and 24, 2016. It would make the most sense that Selina was sworn in on the 24th because that would mean the New Hampshire primary, occurring two days later, would be on Tuesday, January 26th. The New Hampshire primary has always historically been held on a Tuesday.
