Recently, on June 7, Mr. Doug Burgum, Governor of North Dakota, 66 years old, also filed his candidacy with the US Federal Election Commission, thereby officially joining the race for the Republican nomination for the 2024 presidential election.

Despite the large number of Republican candidates, public opinion considers this a two-horse race between Mr. Trump and Mr. DeSantis.
