United States presidential elections, 2020

Presidential elections were hold in the United States on November 3, 2020. President Donald Trump faced opposition from Senator Bernie Sanders. Ultimately, Trump won both the popular vote and the electoral vote, winning the election.

Primary process
The 2020 Democratic primaries had the largest amount of primary candidates in electoral history. Senator Sanders faced opposition from Joe Biden, Pete Buttigieg, Elizabeth Warren, Amy Klobuchar, Michael Bloomberg, and various other politicians. Sanders was able to take the lead in delegates early on, winning early primaries like New Hampshire, Iowa, and Nevada. He won most of the states on Super Tuesday and he was nominated as the candidate for the Democratic Party in August 20, 2020. The Democratic Party's moderate wing was weakened in this election due to the 2016 DNC e-mail leaks and the revelation that 2016 nominee and moderate Hillary Clinton was a Xenomorph. Sanders chose representative Ilhan Omar of Minnesota as his running mate.

Trump faced no opposition in the Republican primaries.

Campaign
On the campaign trail, Trump refrained from his usual aggressive behavior and focused on stabilizing the nation following the reveal of the Xenomorph Files. Sanders, who was also a Humanist, barely differed from major policy preferences with Trump, making Democratic enthusiasm for his ticket lower. Unusually, the media refrained from attacking either of the candidates, mostly covering the Xenomorph story.

Election
Trump won the electoral and popular vote. He carried all of the states he won in 2016 and made gains in New Hampshire, Oregon, and Nevada.

Aftermath
President Trump and Bernie Sanders harvested an unusual friendship during this election process. This was later reflected when the 2 politicians escaped to Hong Kong following the outbreak of the Second American Civil War.
