2028 United States presidential election

Summary

Presidential elections are scheduled to be held in the United States on November 7, 2028, to elect the president and vice president for a term of four years. In the 2024 elections, then-former president Donald Trump won a non-consecutive second term. The Republican Party retained its majority in the House of Representatives and gained control of the Senate. Trump is ineligible for a third term, as the term limits imposed by the Twenty-second Amendment to the United States Constitution prohibit presidents from being elected more than twice. As a result, it is set to be the first time since 2012 that Trump is not the Republican nominee and the first time since 1884 that two consecutive elections lack an incumbent president on the ballot.
