=== Republican Primary ===
President Joe Biden had had a very popular presidency, but his popularity did not carry over to his successor, Kamala Harris. Her passing of progressive bills had helped Republicans to mobilize in the midterms. They hoped to do the same in 2028. After betting hard on loyalty to now convicted felon Donald Trump and losing in 2024, the party decided to chart a new direction, and nominated Adam Kinzinger, the Governor of Illinois, at the RNC in Houston. He chose Ben Sasse, a Senator from Nebraska, as his running mate.

=== General Election ===
Republicans used the same tactics from the midterms in the general election, using the denouncement of high government spending as a main talking point. However, unlike prior elections, the Republicans did not campaign as hard on abortion, knowing it would cost them votes. President Harris mainly campaigned on the successes of the American Families Plan, and how her administration had always put the people first. Harris was considered to have had the better showing in the first debate, but Kinzinger routed the President in the second and third debates. The Vice-Presidential debate was very understated. Going into Election Day, every news site had the race as a tossup, mainly due to the strange factor of Illinois being competitive. Eventually, Kinzinger triumphed, just barely, winning 296 electoral votes and flipping the usually blue state of Illinois. Harris recieved 242 electoral votes. Kinzinger also won the popular vote by 2.5 points, becoming the first Republican 24 years to do so. Adam Kinzinger was inaugurated as the 48th President of the United States of America on January 20th, 2029. Todd Young became the 51st Vice President.
