The next election for President of the United States of America is expected to take place on November 8, 2016. Voters will select electors who will in turn nominate a candidate for the office. As the presidency is limited to two consecutive terms, the incumbent, Barack Obama, is not eligible to serve again.
Throughout 2015 and into 2016, several potential candidates sought selection for the official nomination from their own political party. As of February 2016, the frontrunners include: Hillary Clinton (Democrat); Ted Cruz (Republican); Marco Rubio (Republican); Bernie Sanders (Democrat); and Donald Trump (Republican).
