The United States presidential election of 2016, scheduled for Tuesday, November 8, 2016, will be the 58th quadrennial U.S. presidential election. Voters will select presidential electors who in turn will elect a newpresident and vice president through the Electoral College. The term limit established in the Twenty-second Amendment to the United States Constitutionprevents the incumbent President, Barack Obama, of the Democratic Party, from being elected to a third term.
The series of presidential primary elections and caucuses is taking place between February 1 and June 14, 2016, staggered among the 50 states, the District of Columbia and U.S. territories. This nominating process is also an indirect election, where voters cast ballots for a slate of delegates to a political party's nominating convention, who then in turn elect their party's presidential nominee. The 2016 Republican National Convention will take place from July 18 to 21, 2016 inCleveland, Ohio. The 2016 Democratic National Convention will, later in July 2016 (25-28), take place inPhiladelphia, Pennsylvania.
Businessman and reality television personality Donald Trump became the presumptive presidential nominee of the Republican Party on May 3, 2016, after the suspensions of Ted Cruz and John Kasich's campaigns, respectively, and his win in the Indiana primary.[1] He is expected to face the as of yet undetermined presidential nominee of the Democratic Party in the general election, presumably either Hillary Clinton or Bernie Sanders.
Various third party and independent presidential candidates will also contest the election. The third party candidates with notable ballot access are the Libertarian Party nominee and former Governor of New MexicoGary Johnson, and the as of yet undetermined Green Party nominee.
