The United States presidential election of 2016 will be the 58th quadrennial U.S. presidential election and is scheduled for Tuesday, November 8, 2016. Voters in the election will select presidential electors, who in turn will elect the President and the Vice President of the United States. The incumbent president, Barack Obama, is ineligible to be elected to a third term due to term limits in the Twenty-second Amendment to the United States Constitution.

Background

Article Two of the United States Constitution stipulates that for a person to be elected and serve as President of the United States, the individual must be a natural-born citizen of the United States, at least 35 years old, and a resident of the United States for a period of no less than 14 years. Candidates for the presidency typically seek the nomination of one of the various political parties of the United States, in which case each party devises a method (such as a primary election) to choose the candidate the party deems best suited to run for the position. The party's delegates then officially nominate a candidate to run on the party's behalf.

Candidates

The following notable individuals have filed with the Federal Election Commission to run for President of the United States in 2016 and/or have stated publicly that they are running. (Although these individuals are notable that notability does not necessarily equate with viability as a candidate.)

Potential battleground states

     Democratic-favored state      Republican-favored state
     Potential battleground state
Further information: Swing state

In every state except Maine and Nebraska, the winner of the popular vote in the state wins all of the electoral votes of the state (although state legislatures can, by law, change how votes are allocated). Recent presidential campaigns generally focus their resources on a relatively small number of competitive states. Potential battleground states include Nevada, Colorado, Iowa, Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New Hampshire, Virginia, North Carolina, and Florida. Democrats have discussed targeting Arizona, Georgia, and Texas as potentially competitive states. Other states may also become competitive if the close races of 2016 differ from the close races of the 2012 election, or if 2016 becomes a landslide election.

Party conventions

Democratic Party
Main article: 2016 Democratic National Convention

In July 2014, the Democratic National Committee (DNC) narrowed its list of prospective host cities for the Democratic National Convention to the following five cities, and is expected to make a final decision on the location and dates for the Convention sometime in 2014 or in early 2015.

Republican party
