The following is a timeline of major events leading up, during, and after the 2024 United States presidential election. Since the adoption of the conclusions of the McGovern–Fraser Commission, in 1971, the following milestones have consistently been observed:
2020
- May 23: Dan Behrman becomes the first person to declare candidacy. He is running for the Libertarian Party nomination.
- November 7: Joe Biden is declared the winner of the 2020 presidential election.
2021–22
- The "invisible primary, in which presidential hopefuls "test the waters" by attending local events in early primary states, most notably Iowa and New Hampshire, and contacting potential donors. Most have already set up personal "Political action committees" in order to legally raise money for such a venture.
- Fall 2021: Both Democratic and Republican national committees start the selection process for their national convention sites.
- Summer 2022: In the past, both major parties have announced their site selections by this time.
- Summer-Fall 2022: Earliest Cattle call events usually take place.
- Fall-winter 2022: Major candidates begin publicly announcing the formation of exploratory committees and in rare cases announcing their formal candidacies.
- November 2022: Mid-term election.
2023
- Winter-Spring: A full contingent of major candidates will have announced their runs by this time.
- Spring: The party out of power begins a series of presidential debates. The earliest one of these took place was on April 26, 2007. The latest took place in May of the following year.
- Fall: Candidates begin filing for ballot places.
- December 2023: In the past, New Hampshire has threatened to hold its primary this early.
2024
- January-February: For purposes of tradition, the following states have been exempted from the Democratic party's rules limiting the times that these contests may be held:
- March 5: Super Tuesday, the earliest that a candidate can clinch the nomination. The following states are holding primaries on this day:
- Spring: Further primaries. The last time a Republican failed to clinch at the end of the primary season was 1976 and the last a Democrat was 1984, although several others were contested at the conventions.
- Summer: Conventions. Tradition states the party that holds the White House goes second.
- Fall: General election campaign:
- September: First debate
- October: Vice presidential debate
- October: Final two presidential debates.
- November 5: Election Day
- December: The Electoral college meets.
2025
- January 20: A president and vice president are inaugurated.
