The 2024 U.S. presidential election is expected to be highly contentious, with potential legal challenges and protests that could delay the final outcome.
Experts suggest that, similar to the 2020 election, results may not be clear on election night, and it could take days or even weeks to determine the winner. Some are advocating for a national popular vote as a solution to the complexities of the Electoral College system.
Additionally, the possibility of a female president is once again on the horizon, reigniting hope for many older women who have long awaited this milestone.
