United States presidential election, 2028 (Scenario: Mirai)

The United States presidential election of 2028 was the 61st quadrennial presidential election, held on November 7, 2028. The Democratic Incumbent Tulsi Gabbard was re-elected defeating Republican Ben Sasse and Libertarian Thomas Massie. Other elections such as gubernatorial, senate and house elections were also held on November 7. 
As the Incumbent President, Gabbard would win the democratic primary with no completion. However for the republicans, It was highly contested primary. 
The main issues of this election would be the Medicare-for-All Act, which was signed in 2027 and also the economy. Other minor issues would include Immigration Control and continued political divide. 
Gabbard would win re-election winning 331 electoral votes and would be first Democrat since Carter in 1976 to win Texas. However, Thomas Massie would be the most successful libertarian, winning 10% of the popular vote. 
This election would be held right before the Second Great Recession.
