US PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF POLAND AND CENTRAL AND EASTERN EUROPE
Wojciech Kwiatkowski, PhD
The US presidential election was held in November 2020. It was a significant event not only for America and its citizens, but also for the whole world. The candidates, put forward by the two largest parties in the United States, included the incumbent President Donald Trump, the Republican Party nominee, and Joseph Biden, representing the Democratic Party. In this year’s election, the position of Vice President was more important than usual, as the VP is second in line of presidential succession (which is relevant given the age of both candidates), performs the tasks assigned by the President on a daily basis and is a natural candidate of the party in the 2024 election. 4/2020
