abstract
  • The United States presidential election of 2020 was the 59th quadrennial American presidential election, held on Tuesday, November 3, 2020. Republican candidate and incumbent President Robert H. Dickenson, who had presided over a period of economic growth and prosperity, the passage of major immigration, trade, and tax initiatives, and had a series of foreign policy successes in the Middle East, China, and Korea, won 61.1% of the popular vote, the highest percentage won by a candidate since Lyndon B. Johnson's landslide reelection over Barry M. Goldwater in 1964. It was the most lopsided American presidential election in terms of both popular and electoral votes. No candidate has since equaled or surpassed Dickenson's percentage of the popular vote, though Abraham Lincoln in 1864, Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1936, Richard Nixon in 1972, and Ronald Reagan in 1980 and 1984 won by a similar electoral vote margin. The Democratic candidate, Governor Andrew M. Cuomo of New York, suffered from a lack of support within his own party and his deeply unpopular political positions. Dickenson's campaign advocated for the continuation of his stimulus and protectionist programs (the Contract for America) and succeeded in painting Cuomo as a dangerous left-wing extremist. Dickenson easily won reelection to the Presidency, carrying 49 of the 50 states, becoming only the third candidate in history to do so. Cuomo's only electoral votes came from the District of Columbia, which has never been won by a Republican presidential candidate, and the Democratic state of Vermont in the Northeast. Cuomo's unsuccessful bid spelled the end of the New Democrat movement and spurred a long-term realignment within the Democratic Party that eventually culminated in the election of Cory Booker in 2028. His campaign continued to receive the most support in concentrated metropolitan areas and in parts of the Northeast. Conversely, Dickenson became the first Republican since Richard M. Nixon in 1972 to win Minnesota, the first since Ronald Reagan in 1984 to win Massachusetts and Rhode Island, and the first since G.H.W. Bush in 1988 to win Connecticut and New Jersey.
