when is the next election for president
In the United States, the next election for president is scheduled for Tuesday, November 3, 2028.
How the timing works
U.S. presidential elections happen every four years on the Tuesday after the first Monday in November. The last one was in November 2024, so the next regularly scheduled presidential election falls in November 2028.
That 2028 election will decide who serves the fourâyear term beginning on January 20, 2029, following the current term of President Donald Trumpâs second administration.
If youâre in another country, âthe next election for presidentâ will depend on that countryâs constitution and election laws, but in common online discussion this question usually refers to the U.S. presidential race.
Related dates and context
- The 2026 elections (on November 3, 2026) are midterm elections, mainly for Congress and many governors, not for U.S. president.
- All 435 House seats and around oneâthird of Senate seats are up in 2026, which will shape the balance of power going into the 2028 presidential race.
TL;DR: The next U.S. presidential election is on November 3, 2028; 2026 is a midterm year, not a presidential one.
