    Question

    Joseph Robinette Biden Jr. (born November 20, 1942) is an American politician who served as the 47th vice president of the United States from 2009 to 2017 and represented Delaware in the U.S. Senate from 1973 to 2009. A member of the Democratic Party, Biden is the presumptive Democratic nominee for president in the 2020 election.

    The 2020 United States presidential election is scheduled for Tuesday, November 3, 2020.

    Due to Biden's advanced age and allegations about his behaviour, there has been speculation that Biden may not be the Democratic nominee by the time of the election.

    This question asks: At 00:00 UTC on November 3 2020, will Joe Biden be the official nominee of the Democratic Party for the office of president of the United States?
