United States presidential election, 2008

The United States Presidential election of 2008 will be held on November 4, 2008.
The election will determine electors for the United States Electoral College, and
whichever presidential candidate receives a majority of votes in the Electoral College
(at least 270) will be the 44th President of the United States. If no candidate receives
a majority in the Electoral College then the president-elect is selected by a vote of the
House of Representatives.

As in the 2004 Presidential election, the allocation of electoral votes to each state will
be partially based on the 2000 Census. The president-elect will be inaugurated on
Tuesday, January 20, 2009.

Democrats blamed third party candidate Ralph Nader for taking the election away from Gore.
Nader received some 97,000 votes in Florida. Ralph Nader (born February 27, 1934) has lived
an exceptionally frugal and simple life. He has never been married or had children. He has not
owned a car since 1955, and has lived for decades in a cheap boarding house.
