The United States presidential election of 2052, scheduled for Tuesday, November 5, 2052, will be the 66th quadrennial U.S. presidential election. Voters will select presidential electors who in turn will either elect a new president and vice president through the electoral college or re-elect the incumbents. The series of presidential primary elections and caucuses are likely to be held during the first six months of 2052. This nominating process is also an indirect election, where voters cast ballots selecting a slate of delegates to a political party's nominating convention, who then in turn elect their party's presidential nominee. Incumbent Republican President Saira Blair and Republican Vice-President John R. Powell were defeated in their bid for a second term to Democratic Party nominee Former Vice President of the United States Jon Ossoff and his running mate vice-presidential candidate senior U.S. Senator of Hawaii Tulsi Gabbard.
Four other candidates are mathematically eligible to win the election by a majority of the electoral college These four minor party candidates are widely regarded as having no chance of winning the election, though they are seen by political pundits as potential spoilers for Blair and/or Ossoff. Prior to the election, polls showed all except one major poll showed Blair defeating Ossoff and Blair's presidential approval sat at 40%. Ossoff's approval sat at 51%, given a boost by the former President Sanger in the final stretch of the campaign whom characterized the election as a referendum of Sanger administration polices and Blair administration policies and thus continuously emphasized his strong endorsement of his former Vice President. Sanger remained popular with the general public and with his own initial election seen as a shocker as well, he publicly stated he believed that the polls were wrong yet again and that Ossoff would become the next President of the United States. This result would verify on election day.
President Saira Blair of the Republican Party, who was elected in 2048, is seeking re-election and became the Republican Party's presumptive nominee on April 24, 2052 after her primary challenger, Benjamin Handel, suspended his campaign. The Democratic Party's nominee, former Vice President Jon Ossoff, became the presumptive nominee shortly after the Super Tuesday primaries. Ossoff had previously been a presidential candidate in 2048, but had been defeated by Jewell Jones in a close primary campaign, where Jones would go on to lose the general election to Blair. The winner of the 2052 presidential election is scheduled to be inaugurated on January 20, 2053.
