His predecessor Donald Trump, a member of the Republican Party, is running for re-election for a second, nonconsecutive term. This will mark the seventh presidential rematch in American history and the first since 1956. If Trump wins, he would become the second president to serve a nonconsecutive term, the first being Grover Cleveland.
The winner of this election is scheduled to be inaugurated on January 20, 2025. It will occur at the same time as elections relating to the U.S. Senate, House, gubernatorial, and state legislative. On March 12, Biden and Trump became the presumptive nominees for the Democratic and Republican parties respectively by clinching a majority of delegates, although they have yet to be confirmed at the nominating conventions. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. emerged as the first major third-party presidential candidate since Ross Perot in the 1992 and 1996 elections, running as an independent. His polling is at the highest levels for a candidate outside the two major parties since Ross Perot in 1992. On March 12, Kennedy confirmed that he had selected his vice president and the following day stated that it would be publicly announced in late March.
Abortion, immigration, healthcare, education, the economy, foreign policy, border security, LGBT rights, climate change, and democracy are expected to be leading campaign issues. Many political analysts have warned of increased violence this election cycle.
