The 2024 United States Presidential Election has been unlike any other. With one candidate claiming he should have won the last election, and the other candidate stepping in after the incumbent President withdrew from the race, it's been nothing if not unusual. One candidate is a convicted felon, while the other is hoping to be the first black woman President. The campaigning has been brutal. And the stakes are higher than they've ever been. Sam Dover and Deborah Groarke examine the personalities, the policies, the politics and the process

The 2024 US Presidential Election is finally upon us but how exactly does it all work? This episode of US Election Unplugged takes you through some of the key differences between the US and Australian election systems and shows you what to be watching for as the votes start pouring in.
Electioneering is essentially the process by which candidates in an election seek to convince voters to support them - and not the other guy. In the US, the campaigns of the Democratic and Republican nominees for president have centred around particular age and class groups of people - as well as voters in crucial areas known as battleground states, which could offer them a potential edge in electoral college votes. Those battleground states have become even more important in light of the polls which suggest neither Donald Trump and Kamala Harris has a clear lead, and are essentially tied. But the race is being complicated by social media and even artificial technology, which has changed the shape of electioneering for the US presidency.
United States-funded wars are raging in Europe and the Middle East with scrutiny of the Biden administration's support coming under increasing global and domestic scrutiny. With the 2024 US Presidential Election fast approaching, voters are looking to candidates Donald Trump and Kamala Harris for a pathway to peace abroad and protections for US workers at home in a competitive global market. SBS News takes you through the ins-and-outs of Trump and Harris' foreign policy and what's at stake on November 5.
Abortion is one of the leading issues in the US, sure to animate any discussion of politics and life. For decades now, it has been a key issue for voters and one where partisan lines are predictably drawn between Democrat and Republican parties and candidates. But how has that happened? Where does abortion policy currently sit - and what impact might all of this have on this November's elections, when both candidates have made it a centrepiece of their campaigns - albeit for vastly different reasons.
With mass-deportations and severe border restrictions on the agenda, immigration has proven to be one of the most crucial and divisive issues of the 2024 United States Presidential Election. With the election fast-approaching, SBS News takes you through the ins-and-outs of Donald Trump and Kamala Harris' policies and what's at stake on November 5.
The 2024 United States Presidential Election has been unlike any other.
