2020 U.S. presidential election
The 2020 U.S. presidential election was held on November 3, involving voters choosing between incumbent President Donald Trump and challenger Joe Biden. Biden, a Democrat, campaigned on issues like healthcare, economic recovery, and addressing COVID-19. Due to the pandemic, mail-in voting increased significantly. After counting votes, Biden was declared the winner with 306 electoral votes to Trump's 232. Trump and some supporters disputed the results, alleging voter fraud, but these claims were largely unsubstantiated. On January 20, 2021, Joe Biden was inaugurated as the 46th U.S. president, concluding a highly contentious election cycle.
