Who's running for US president in 2024? From Joe Biden and Donald Trump to Nikki Haley and Ron DeSantis, here are the confirmed and potential candidates

The 2024 US presidential election is, politically speaking, just around the corner.

President Joe Biden is running again with the backing of his party establishment, leaving him in a strong position to ward off rival Democrats who might believe they're better placed than the 80-year-old incumbent to take on an energised Republican Party.

On the other side, former president Donald Trump's early announcement and loyal following place him at the forefront of the GOP list, but there's a host of potential rivals, such as Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, just waiting for the right time to show their hand.

Will America see new names on the ballot come next November? Or will Mr Biden and Mr Trump go another round?

Here's who we know is running, who we expect to run, and who might surprise us in the lead up to the 2024 US presidential election.
