2040 US Presidential Election (Alenario)

The 2040 US Presidential Election was the 64th quadrennial presidential election, held on November 6, 2040. Other elections were held on November 6 such as gubernatorial, house and senate elections.

Libertarian Nominee and Vice President Adam Kokesh (L-AZ) and his running mate Secretary of Transportation Eric Johnson (L-ND) defeated the Progressive Nominee and U.S. Representative Ro Khanna of California and his running mate U.S. Representative Rashida Tlaib of Michigan.

Due to President Ben Kamlim's popularity, the Libertarian Party would have no trouble of winning the election, Vice President Adam Kokesh was the most likely nominee, but many challenged Kokesh, including Massachusetts Governor John Cena and Secretary of Transportation and son of Gary Johnson, Eric Johnson. Kokesh would win the primary due to the Kamlim being with him on the campaign trail. The Progressive Party nominated Ro Khanna, an anti-war and pro-open borders representative from California.

Kokesh would win the election handily with 390 electoral votes, while Khanna got 148. Khanna would gain back a lot of states Kamlim won in 2036, including his home state of California. Kokesh would become the first Vice President to become President since George H. W. Bush in 1988.
