US elections 2024
Voting began today, Tuesday, November 5 US elections 2024In which both Democratic candidate Kamala Harris, the current Vice President, and Republican candidate Donald Trump, who aspires to return to the White House, are competing.
Kamala Harris won a ticket to run for the elections, representing the Democratic Party, after the severe criticism directed at current President Joe Biden, due to his poor performance against his rival, Donald Trump, in the presidential debate, which later prompted Biden to announce his withdrawal from the elections and support Kamala Harris.
Harris seeks to write history in the 2024 American elections by becoming or a woman assuming the position of president in America, just as she was the first woman to assume the position of vice president during the past 2020 elections, as no woman had previously reached the position of president of the United States.
While Trump wants to write history as well and become the second president in the history of America to succeed in returning to the White House after losing the second term elections, something that was preceded by only Grover Cleveland in the 1892 elections.
Trump lost the US elections in 2020 to Joe Biden and his then-vice president, Kamala Harris, which caused chaos in the United States and was led by a number of supporters of the former president.
During the current elections, the United States will know the forty-seventh president in its history since George Washington, the first president in American history.
For the position of Vice President, Kamala Harris is running in the elections with veteran politician Tim Walz, while Donald Trump is running in the presidential race with young politician J.D. Vance.
The United States knows a special system related to the American presidential elections, where the election results do not depend on the popular vote, but rather on the Electoral College system consisting of 538 votes, where the winner must obtain at least 270 votes in the Electoral College (the “50% + 1” ratio). To win the presidency of the United States.
The distribution of voters’ votes in the Electoral College depends on the population mass of each of the fifty states. The largest number of votes in the Electoral College is for the state of California with 54 votes, followed by the state of Texas with 40 votes, while the smallest number of votes for any state is 3 votes, which is in the states of Delaware and Montana. Vermont, the District of Columbia (Washington, D.C.), and Alaska.
