The 2024 United States elections were held on Tuesday, November 5, 2024. In the presidential election, former President Donald Trump, running as the Republican nominee, defeated the incumbent Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris. In addition, all 435 seats in the United States House of Representatives and 34 of the 100 seats in the United States Senate were contested to determine the membership of the 119th United States Congress. Republicans gained the Senate and are likely to win the House, with the voting count for the latter still underway. Thirteen state and territorial governorships and numerous other state and local elections were also contested. The next presidential election is scheduled for 2028.
Issues
Economic issues
Voters consistently cited the economy as their top issue in the 2024 election.[1] Following the COVID-19 pandemic, a global surge in inflation ensued that raised prices on many goods, though the U.S. inflation rate had declined significantly during 2023 and 2024.[2][3][4] The New York Times reported that both candidates "embraced a vision of a powerful federal government, using its muscle to intervene in markets in pursuit of a stronger and more prosperous economy."[5]
Election interference
Several foreign nations may have interfered in the 2024 United States elections, the most notable being China, Iran, and Russia. The efforts have largely focused on propaganda and disinformation campaigns using inauthentic accounts on social media, and stoking domestic divisions and denigrating the United States and democracy more broadly.[6][7][8]
Abortion
This was the first presidential election held after the overturn of Roe v. Wade, and the third overall election cycle after the 2022 midterm elections and the 2023 off-year elections. Republican-controlled states predominantly passed near-total bans on abortion in the aftermath of the Supreme Court's June 2022 Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization decision. By April 2023, abortion was "largely illegal" in several states.[9] According to the Kaiser Family Foundation, there were 15 states that had de jure early stage bans on abortion explicitly without exceptions for rape or incest: Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Florida, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, West Virginia, and Wisconsin.[9] (Ohio voters subsequently codified abortion rights in Ohio's state constitution via November 2023 Ohio Issue 1.) In states with laws granting exceptions, it was reported de facto that "very few exceptions to these new abortion bans have been granted" and that patients who had been raped or otherwise qualified for exceptions were being turned away, citing "ambiguous laws and the threat of criminal penalties make them unwilling to test the rules".[10]
Democrats outperformed Biden's results in the 2020 U.S. presidential election in several 2022 House special elections, with abortion cited as a major contributor to their victories.[11] Then during the 2023 elections, both Democratic and Republican operatives attributed the Democrats' overperformance streak to the growing bipartisan support of broad abortion rights in the wake of Dobbs decision.[12][13] Thus, many conservative political analysts and commentators called a continued Republican alliance with the anti-abortion movement "untenable" and an "electoral disaster", and urged the party to favor abortion rights.[14] Some issue polling has shown Donald Trump, the 2024 Presidential Republican nominee, outrunning his party and closing the gap with Democrats on the issue of abortion, but no election data with Trump directly on the ballot has happened to verify these results.[15]
Mark Robinson, who once advocated for a complete abortion ban without exceptions, underwent a rhetorical shift in his North Carolina gubernatorial campaign. In 2018, he had labeled abortion as "murder" and "genocide," but as the leading Republican candidate for governor of North Carolina in 2024, he avoided mentioning abortion on the campaign trail. However, his stance softened following the Supreme Court's 2022 Dobbs decision and the passage of North Carolina's 12-week abortion ban in May 2023. Robinson, who had shifted to emphasizing the term "life" instead of "abortion," expressed support for "heartbeat" legislation with exceptions for rape, incest, and the mother's life. Despite his past harsh rhetoric, Robinson's then-current position reflected a more nuanced approach to anti-abortion legislation.[16]
Abortion referendums were on the ballot in 10 states in 2024: Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Maryland, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New York and South Dakota.[17]
Indictments
On November 18, 2022, three days after former president and Republican candidate Donald Trump announced his 2024 re-election bid, U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland appointed Jack Smith as special counsel to investigate Trump's role in the January 6th U.S. Capitol attack and Trump's mishandling of government documents, including classified documents.
On March 30, 2023, Trump was indicted by a grand jury in Manhattan for his alleged role in a scandal stemming from hush money payments made to Stormy Daniels before the 2016 presidential election.[18]
On May 10, 2023, Republican New York Congressman George Santos was indicted on federal charges of fraud and money laundering.[19]
On June 8, 2023, Trump was indicted on 37 federal charges related to his alleged mishandling of classified documents by the office of the Smith special counsel investigation.[20]
On August 1, 2023, a Washington, D.C., federal grand jury indicted Trump again on four felony counts of conspiracy and obstruction related to Trump's role in the January 6 attack and his efforts to overturn the 2020 election.[21]
On August 14, a Georgia grand jury indicted Trump on racketeering and other felonies committed in an effort to overturn the state's 2020 election results and the Trump–Raffensperger phone call.[22][23] As of September 15, 2023, Trump has pleaded not guilty to all the charges.
On August 11, four months after incumbent president and Democratic candidate Joe Biden announced his re-election bid, Garland appointed David C. Weiss to serve as special counsel to investigate Biden's son, Hunter Biden, who was indicted on September 14, 2023, on three federal firearms-related charges.[24][25]
On September 22, 2023, Democratic U.S. Senator Bob Menendez of New Jersey and his wife Nadine were both indicted on bribery charges.[26][27]
On December 19, 2023, the Colorado Supreme Court removed Trump from the state's 2024 Republican primary, citing the Fourteenth Amendment's ban on candidates who engage in insurrections.[28] This decision was later overturned by the US Supreme Court on March 4, 2024.[29]
Federal elections
Presidential election
The 2024 United States presidential election was the 60th quadrennial U.S. presidential election. This was the first presidential election under the electoral vote distribution determined by the 2020 census. Presidential electors who would elect the President and Vice President of the United States were chosen; a simple majority (270) of the 538 electoral votes is required to win the election.
President Joe Biden initially ran for a second term and won the primaries, with Vice President Kamala Harris once again serving as his running mate; Biden later withdrew his candidacy on July 21, 2024.[30] Biden's withdrawal made him the first eligible incumbent president since Lyndon B. Johnson in 1968 not to seek re-election, and the first to withdraw after securing enough delegates to win the nomination.[31] Harris is the first nominee who did not participate in the primaries since Vice President Hubert Humphrey, also in 1968.[32] Other candidates that entered the 2024 Democratic Party presidential primaries include Minnesota US Representative Dean Phillips, self-help author Marianne Williamson, and businessman Jason Palmer, who have all since suspended their campaigns.[33][34] This was the first election since 1968 in which an eligible incumbent president was not their party's nominee.[35] After a survey by the Associated Press of Democratic delegates on July 22, 2024, Kamala Harris became the new presumptive candidate for the Democratic party, a day after declaring her candidacy.[36] She would become the official nominee on August 5 following a virtual roll call of delegates.[37]
In November 2022, former President Donald Trump announced his candidacy in the 2024 presidential election.[38] Other candidates who entered the 2024 Republican Party presidential primaries include former South Carolina governor and former U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Nikki Haley and current Florida governor Ron DeSantis, who have since suspended their campaigns.[39] The first Republican presidential debate was held on August 23, 2023, and the first primary contest was the 2024 Iowa Republican presidential caucuses, which was held on January 15, 2024.[40] Trump would win the nomination easily; he was formally nominated at the Republican Convention on July 15, his third consecutive presidential nomination.[41]
In October 2023, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced his run as an independent presidential candidate.[42] On August 23, 2024, Kennedy announced he was suspending his campaign and backing Trump.[43] In July, intermediaries between Trump and Kennedy discussed a possible role for Kennedy in the Trump administration in return for his endorsement;[44] a month later, Kennedy made similar overtures to the Harris campaign, but was rebuffed.[45]
Congressional elections
Senate elections
All 33 seats in Senate Class 1 and one seat in Senate Class 2 were be up for election; at least one additional special election were take place to fill vacancies that arise during the 118th Congress. Democrats controlled the majority in the closely divided Senate following the 2022 U.S. Senate elections, but they had to defend 23 seats in 2024. Three Democratic-held seats up for election are in the heavily Republican-leaning states of Montana, Ohio, and West Virginia, all of which were won comfortably by Trump in both 2016 and 2020.[46] Other potential Republican targets included seats in Arizona, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Maryland.
Special elections
Two special elections were scheduled to fill the unexpired terms of senators who vacated their seats during the 118th Congress:

Pete Ricketts was appointed by Nebraska governor Jim Pillen to fill the seat until the special election, which took place concurrently with the regularly-scheduled 2024 Senate elections.[47][48][49]
- California Class 1: Democrat Dianne Feinstein died on September 29, 2023. Laphonza Butler was appointed by California governor Gavin Newsom to fill the seat until the special election, which took place concurrently with the regular election for a six-year term.[50][51]
House of Representatives elections
All 435 voting seats in the United States House of Representatives were up for election. Additionally, elections were held to select the non-voting members who represent the District of Columbia and all five permanently-inhabited U.S. territories in the House of Representatives. Republicans held a narrow majority in the House of Representatives following the 2022 U.S. House elections.[52]

Violent threats
The election campaign has been marked by widespread doxxing, swatting, and threats against politicians and activists, with a particular series of incidents starting in December 2023.[134][135][136]
On July 13, 2024, during a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, presidential candidate Donald Trump was shot in a failed assassination attempt. Trump was shot in the upper right ear, while one supporter was killed and two others were critically injured.[137] On September 15, 2024, Trump's security detail spotted an armed man while the former president was touring his golf course in West Palm Beach. They opened fire on the suspect, who fled in a vehicle and was later captured thanks to the contribution of an eyewitness. In the location where the suspect was spotted, the police retrieved a modified SKS rifle with a scope, two rucksacks and a GoPro in what was called a second assassination attempt.[138]

Republicans in states across the country are defiantly pushing for the criminalization of abortion — of the procedure, of abortifacient drugs and of those who travel out of state to terminate pregnancy... According to research provided to The Times by the Kaiser Family Foundation, states that have abortion bans at various early stages of pregnancy with no exception for rape or incest include Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Florida, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, West Virginia and Wisconsin.

...But in the months since the court's decision, very few exceptions to these new abortion bans have been granted, a New York Times review of available state data and interviews with dozens of physicians, advocates and lawmakers revealed. Instead, those with means are traveling to states where abortion is still broadly legal or are obtaining abortion pills at home because the requirements to qualify for exceptions are too steep. Doctors and hospitals are turning away patients, saying that ambiguous laws and the threat of criminal penalties make them unwilling to test the rules.
