2040 Presidential Election (King's World)

The 2040 United States presidential election was the 64th quadrennial American presidential election, held on Tuesday, November 6, 2040. The election was between Missouri Senator Jason Kander and his running mate Illinois Governor Lauren Underwood vs Vice President Dan Crenshaw and New York Senator Elise Stefanik. 
The election held many notable firsts. The first time that both major party tickets had two women as the Running Mate. This election was the first since 1988 where both people at the head of the ticket served in the military. Furthermore, this was also the first election since the 1912 election where a ticket had a Governor for President and Vice President.
The election was very contentious at first. It was widely expected that Vice President Crenshaw would succeed Haley based on her high approvals. But polls began to shift when Kander became the Democratic Nominee. Crenshaw ran for President on continuing the great work of the Haley administration citing the impressive records. Kander ran for President on a better foreign policy based on diplomacy and an economic plan geared towards rural and middle America. In the end, Kander beat Crenshaw by focusing on the Midwest during his campaign while Crenshaw focused on the west and the sunbelt.
