In the 1984 United States presidential election, Ronald Reagan and George H. W. Bush were reelected president and vice president over Walter Mondale and Geraldine Ferraro of the Democratic Party.
Reagan authorized the formation of his 1984 campaign committee, Reagan-Bush '84, on October 17, 1983.[1][2] He made the formal announcement of his candidacy for reelection on January 29, 1984.[3] On August 23, he secured the nomination of the Republican Party at its convention in Dallas, Texas.[4] The convention nominated Bush as his running mate.[5]
On November 6, Reagan carried 49 of 50 states, winning the election with 58.8 percent of the popular vote and 525 electoral votes. Mondale carried only his home state, Minnesota, and the District of Columbia, receiving 40.6 percent and 13 electoral votes.[6][7] Reagan's reelection was confirmed by the Electoral College on December 17[8] and certified by the joint session of the U.S. Congress on January 7, 1985.[9] At 73 years old, Reagan was then the oldest incumbent president to win a presidential election. He was inaugurated for his second term on January 20, 1985.
