List Of The United States Presidents Till Now (1789-2022): Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump secures victory in three of the seven battleground states—North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Georgia—United States House Speaker Johnson announced him as the new president-elect, news agency Reuters reported.
The 2024 United States presidential elections have witnessed a fierce contest between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris, with all eyes now on the results announced today.
This year, over 74 million ballots were cast in the United States, with most ballots being submitted through mail-in or early in-person options, early in September.
With the US being the world’s largest economy and arguably the most significant actor on the geopolitical stage, the election outcome will likely have a significant impact during a volatile global moment.
Interestingly, both campaigns have an India link this time—Kamala Harris’ mother is from Tamil Nadu, and J. D. Vance, Trump’s vice presidential contender, is married to Usha Vance, whose family is from undivided Andhra Pradesh.
In 2020, Biden beat incumbent Donald Trump to become the 46th president of the United States and took office on 20 January 2021.
However, in July 2024, Biden announced he would not seek a second term and endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris as his successor.
The president of the United States is widely regarded as the most powerful government official and is elected to a four-year term under the electoral college system.
Since the Twenty-second Amendment was passed in 1951, the American presidency has been limited to a maximum of two terms.
Ever since the office was established in 1789, 45 men have served as president across a total of 46 presidencies, with George Washington, the first president of the United States, securing a unanimous vote in the Electoral College.
