On the Bowery, on July 1, 1952, pig farmer Henry Krajewski of Secaucus, N.J. (center, with mug in raised hand), launches his campaign as the "Poor Man's Party" candidate for president of the United States.

The 2024 presidential election “season” started in January 2021, as soon as the 2020 election was put to bed and President Biden took his Oath of Office, 715 days ago.
