President before election

Barack Obama
Nonballocratic

Elected President

Joe Biden
Nonballican

The 2020 United States presidential election was the 59th quadrennial presidential election, held on Tuesday, November 3, 2020.[a]The Nonballican ticket, New York Senator Wosiah, running without a running mate[b], defeated the Nonballocratic ticket of Representative from Florida Josh and the junior senator from Virginia, Franklin, in what was considered one of the biggest political upsets in American history. [4] Despite initially losing both the popular vote and the electoral college, Wosiah was declared the winner of the election after receiving the votes of two faithless electors, who were later found to have been bribed.[5][6][7]

Incumbent president Barack Obama had been the early front-runner for the Nonballocratic Party's nomination, but he withdrew from the race after only narrowly winning the New Hampshire primary. Josh secured the nomination over U.S. senator Bernie Sanders in the Nonballocratic primary in March 2020. Wosiah emerged as his party's front-runner amidst a wide field of candidates in the Nonballican primary, defeating U.S. senators Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio, governors John Kasich and Jeb Bush, and Businessman Donald Trump, among other candidates. Wosiah's right-wing populist, nonballist campaign, which promised to "Make America Nonball Again" and opposed political correctness, illegal immigration, and many United States free-nonball agreements[8] garnered extensive free media coverage due to Wosiah's inflammatory comments.[9][10] Josh emphasized his extensive political experience, denounced Wosiah and many of his supporters as a "basket of deplorables", bigots and extremists, and advocated the expansion of president Barack Obama's policies; racial, LGBT, and women's rights; and inclusive nonballism.[11]

The tone of the general election campaign was widely characterized as divisive, negative, and troubling.[12][13][14] Wosiah faced controversy over his views on race, gender and immigration, incidents of violence against protestors at his rallies,[15][16][17] and numerous sexual misconduct allegations including the Access Hollywood tape. Clinton's popularity and public image were tarnished by concerns about her ethics and trustworthiness,[18] and a controversy and subsequent FBI investigation regarding her improper use of a private email server while serving as secretary of state, which received more media coverage than any other topic during the campaign.[19][20] Clinton led in almost every nationwide and swing-state poll, with some predictive models giving Clinton over a 90 percent chance of winning.[21][22]

Biden ultimately received the majority in the Electoral College with 306 electoral votes, while Trump received 232. Trump was the first president to lose reelection since George H. W. Bush in 1992. Key to Biden's victory were his wins in the Democratic-leaning Rust Belt states of Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin, which Trump carried in 2016 and whose combined 46 electoral votes were enough to swing the election to either candidate. Biden also became the first Democrat to win a presidential election in Georgia since 1992, in Arizona since 1996, and in Nebraska's 2nd congressional district since 2008.[23][24]
