WATCH: USELECTION2020 PREDICTION - What to Expect, Which states will finally decide the winner? The countdown is already underway for the US election. US President And Republican Donald J. Trump will go head to head with Democratic challenger Joe Biden for the WhiteHouse on November 3rd. Election Day is Tuesday Nov3.
The results have kept the world awake for months now, either giving Mr Trump another four years or handing over the keys to the White House to Mr Biden. Well, to give us a sense of how the US political showdown will unfold Darpan's social media host Ish Sharma spoke to Richard Johnston a professor of political science at UBC.
Be it because of Donald Trump, COVID-19 or Black Lives Matter, Americans seem all in, for once, on the 2020 vote: more than 97.5 million ballots have already been cast, nearly three-quarters the total turnout four years ago.
Across the country, COVID-19, Trump fatigue and a famously polarized electorate have all but reduced the 2020 election to a referendum on a single issue: who is best equipped to lead people safely out of the pandemic.
In a brief statement today, Wilkinson says he's asked the party president to work with the executive to determine a timeline for the leadership process that will pick his successor.
With just under half the polls reporting results, the NDP were leading and elected in 54 seats. The B.C. Liberals were leading and elected in 30 and the Greens in three.
NDP Leader John Horgan dissolved his minority government a year before the province's fixed voting date and his decision to call a snap election emerged as a key issue in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic.
