The 2024 US presidential election on November 5 will see voters electing key offices amid significant political polarization, with experts noting the importance of the election for American democracy.

Polarization in the US has historical roots, predating Trump's presidency, and is exacerbated by social media.

The upcoming election is seen as a crucial moment for American democracy, with the potential for significant political and cultural ramifications.

Demographic shifts in the US could lead to a more unified political landscape in the future, challenging the current polarization.

If Trump loses the election, it may indicate a rejection of his style of governance and campaigning, potentially leading to a more moderate political climate.

Demographic changes may influence future elections, as emerging minority groups seek representation and address their unique concerns, possibly reducing polarization.

The political landscape may shift towards compromise on issues like abortion and immigration as both parties adjust to the changing demographics of the electorate.


The 2024 US presidential election is set for November 5, where voters will elect the president, vice president, and various local and state offices. The ballots will vary by county and precinct, featuring different candidates and measures depending on the local jurisdiction. Sample ballots from Miami-Dade County, Florida; Carroll County, Maryland; and Fort Bend County, Texas illustrate this diversity.

Political scientist Stephan Bierling discusses the roots of polarization in the United States, tracing it back to the 1960s and the breakdown of post-war consensus. He argues that Donald Trump is not the cause of division but rather a beneficiary and exacerbator of it. He emphasizes the role of social media in deepening political divides and suggests that the upcoming election is critical for the future of American democracy.

Bierling expresses hope that a Trump defeat could signal a shift away from polarization, as many Americans are less divided on key issues than politicians portray. He notes that demographic changes could lead to stabilization and depolarization in the US, particularly as the white population becomes a minority by 2045. The election between Trump and Kamala Harris is viewed as pivotal, not only for policy but for the political culture of the nation.
