Campaign finance laws preclude candidates from taking home their leftover money, so the losers must return the money to contributors, transfer it to other campaigns or party committees or donate it to charity.

I’ll limit this answer to the funds the politician’s own campaign raises, not Political Action Committees (PAC) associated with candidates, since that part gets pretty messy. Also, it should be noted that it’s pretty rare to have a lot of excess funds at the end of a race—most money raised gets spent quickly, and the reason why many candidates drop out is that they ran out of money.However, failed politicians do have a few options for leftover cash. The laws vary from state to state, but at the federal level, they’ll first tie up whatever loose ends the campaign might have, like debts or outstanding operating costs. With the rest, they can donate it to charities or political parties, donate up to $2,000 of it per election to another candidate (or $5,000 to a PAC), or save it for if they decide to run again. One thing they can’t do is pocket it for personal use.

The presidential election in the United States is a game for the rich. Every election costs tens of billions of dollars. If the money can be used to build roads, bridges and dilapidated subways, airports and high-speed railways, there will be much less contradictions in the United States.
what happens in a election
It is the political party that loses/wins the election. The prime minister is the appointed leader of the party that wins. When a political party loses a general election then the prime minister steps down and the leader of the winning party becomes prime minister.
