The 2044 United States presidential election will be the 65th quadrennial presidential election, scheduled for Wednesday, November 2, 2044. The winner of this election will be inaugurated on January 20, 2045. Voters in each state and the District of Columbia will choose electors to the Electoral College, who will then elect a president and vice president for a term of four years.
The presidential election will take place at the same time as elections for the U.S. Senate, House, gubernatorial, and state legislatures.
Background
[edit]Procedure
[edit]Article Two of the United States Constitution states that for a person to serve as president, the individual must be a natural-born citizen of the United States, be at least 35 years old, and have been a United States resident for at least 14 years. The Twenty-second Amendment forbids any person from being elected president more than twice. Major party candidates seek the nomination through a series of primary elections that select the delegates who choose the candidate at the party's national convention. The national convention chooses a vice presidential running mate to form that party's ticket. The nominee for president usually picks the running mate, who is then ratified by the delegates at the party's convention.
The general election in November is an indirect election, in which voters cast ballots for a slate of members of the Electoral College; these electors then directly elect the president and vice president.
