US presidential Election 2020

The 2020 United States presidential election was the 59th quadrennial presidential election, held nominally on Tuesday, November 3, 2020. The Democratic ticket of former vice president Joe Biden and incumbent U.S. senator from California Kamala Harris defeated the Republican ticket of incumbent president Donald Trump and vice president Mike Pence. Trump became the first U.S. president since 1992 and the eleventh incumbent in the country's history to fail to win re-election to a second term, and Biden won the largest share of the popular vote against an incumbent since 1932.[6][7][8] The election saw the highest voter turnout since 1900,[9] with each ticket receiving more than 74 million votes, surpassing Barack Obama's record of 69.5 million votes from 2008. Biden and Harris received more than 80 million votes,[10] the most votes ever cast for a candidate in a U.S. presidential election.[11] The votes of the Electoral College for president and vice president are scheduled to be formally cast by the presidential electors on December 14, 2020, and officially counted by Congress on January 6, 2021
