Statista trend report on the presidential elections in the United States
On November 3, 2020, the United States will elect a new president. Following the four-year term of Donald Trump, the U.S.A. is divided in a manner seldom seen before: Post-war order has progressively unraveled, and as the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic continued its spread, the economy intermittently experienced severe setbacks. The future president – be it Donald Trump or Joe Biden – will face major challenges similar to those last observed in the aftermath of the American Civil War.
The division in the United States runs primarily along the party lines. Both sides attach extremely high importance to the election. This can be seen in the gigantic expenses in the election campaign, which are more than twice as high as four years ago. However, while some states provide relatively safe voter bases for one of the parties, there are some contested states on which the election campaign is focused - the so-called swing states . A historic high in the percentage of postal voters is also expected.
Based on statistics and graphs, this report provides key historic and current insights about the presidential office and the U.S. election system, as well as topics crucial to the election and the candidates for 2020:
