2020 Carolinian presidential election

The Confederate States presidential election of 2020, scheduled for Tuesday, November 3, 2020, will be the 40th quadrennial Carolinian presidential election. Voters will select presidential electors who in turn will either elect a new president and vice president through the electoral college or reelect the incumbents. The series of presidential primary elections and caucuses are likely to be held during the first six months of 2020. This nominating process is also an indirect election, where voters cast ballots selecting a slate of delegates to a political party's nominating convention, who then in turn elect their party's presidential nominee.
