Presidential Election, Nov. 3, 2020

Here’s a little background information on elections from Wikipedia:

“The United States presidential election of 2020, scheduled for Tuesday, November 3, 2020, will be the 59th quadrennial U.S. presidential election. Voters will select presidential electors who in turn will either elect a new president and vice president through the electoral college or reelect the incumbents. The series of presidential primary elections and caucuses are likely to be held during the first six months of 2020. This nominating process is also an indirect election, where voters cast ballots selecting a slate of delegates to a political party’s nominating convention, who then in turn elect their party’s presidential nominee.

“President Donald Trump of the Republican Party, who was elected in 2016, is seeking reelection to a second term. The winner of the 2020 presidential election is scheduled to be inaugurated on January 20, 2021.”

In Plymouth County, Iowa, the 2020 election offers us choices for our House of Representatives as well as the President of the United States as well as a plethora of local and state representation.

Iowa’s caucuses will be held on February 3, 2020. This is where we meet at a very local level to debate and promote the candidates for President. Please click here for more information on how the caucuses work.
