On the night of November 3 to 4, 2020, Americans will go to the polls to either elect Republican President Donald Trump or replace him with Democrat challenger Joe Biden.

In the last election, Trump surprised the opinion polls' forecasts and beat the then Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton.

Are we facing another walker?

To cover this election, SVT has four teams in place in the USA:

  • Washington, where Donald Trump is expected to be: Stefan Åsberg and Åke Wehrling

  • Delaware where Joe Biden is expected to be: Carina Bergfeldt and Andreas Zernell

  • Key Wave State Florida, Tampa: Fouad Youcefi and Iman Thabaz

  • Important Wavemaster State of Pennsylvania, Scranton: Ann-Britt Ryd Pettersson and Tomas Hallstan

You will get to see their reporting in both our broadcasts and our digital live reporting.

During the night and morning, Jaqueline Balcer Bednarska and Prescilia Haddad will also update the live reporting with the latest news, and try to answer your questions.

Between 20 and 21, Sweden's largest election expert Henrik Ekengren Oscarsson will answer your questions in the chat.

Digitally, on the site svt.se and in the app SVT Nyheter, we will have a results report that is updated as the votes are counted and more advanced forecasts are compiled.

You can already keep track of our public opinion map:

And to quickly get an overview of the American electoral system, you can look around here:

The democratic system in the United States is not representative but is based on the number of electors each candidate receives.

Anyone who receives 270 or more electoral votes becomes president.

But the president's power is determined by the composition of Congress - which we will also report on overnight.
