United States presidential election, 2020 (Temporal Incursion 1918)

The United States presidential election of 2020, scheduled for Tuesday, November 3, 2020, will be the 59th quadrennial U.S. presidential election. Voters will select presidential electors who in turn will elect a new president and vice president through the electoral college. The series of presidential primary elections and caucuses are likely to be held during the first six months of 2020. This nominating process is also an indirect election, where voters cast ballots selecting a slate of delegates to a political party's nominating convention, who then in turn elect their party's presidential nominee.

Incumbent President John Hansen will be ineligible to run for re-election due to the twenty-second amendment limit of two four-year terms. However, Vice President John Boyer has been strongly speculated by the media as a potential front runner for the nomination in the 2020 Republican primaries.
