How often are elections for the US president?

Answer 1

Elections for the US president are held every four years on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November. This timing is established by the US Constitution and ensures that the presidential election takes place in the same year for all states. The president serves a four-year term, so elections are held regularly to determine the next individual to hold this office.

Answer 2

Presidential elections in the United States are held every four years with the next election taking place in 2012.

A U. S. Presidential Election is held in every year which is a multiple of four on the first Tuesday following the first Monday in November. Terms are 4 years and they can serve 2 terms for a total of 8 years.

Answer 3

The typical term (or time-in-office) for the President of the United States of America is four years. The President can run for a second term, and if he/she (I say "he/she" as an example meaning "depending on who the President is") is elected, once the four years of that second term are up, he/she cannot run for President again as per regulations stating that President-elect can only serve two terms in office.

Answer 4

Every four years, starting with 1788. So, presidential elections are held in November during leap years, and the new president enters office on January 20 the following year.

Although, to be perfectly correct, we as citizens NEVER vote for President. We citizens vote for ELECTORS who represent the presidential candidate, and our electors cast their own votes in the Electoral College in December. If the electors decided to, they could vote for any natively-born American citizen over age 35 to become the new President, and it would be legal. However, there have only been 157 "faithless electors" since the ratification of the Constitution, and this has never affected the outcome of an election.

Answer 5

Presidential elections in the US are held every four years. They are held in the first Tuesday of November in years divisible by four.

Answer 6

In the US, the president serves a term of 4 years. There is an election every 4 years. The president can stand for re-election, and can be elected to a second term, but no more than that.

Answer 7

The US President is elected for four years. That means that the parties have elections for that office every four years. It seems that the parties are always thinking about the next election.
