who becomes the president in house of cards season 5?
underwood
bullet::::- in the us version of "house of cards", u.s. representative francis underwood sponsors the candidacy of another representative, peter russo, for governor of pennsylvania, then intentionally destroys his candidacy. he then urges the vice president, who was the governor of pennsylvania before he ran for vice president, and who is becoming increasingly disenchanted with his new job, to resign and run to retake his old position—underwood's plan being that he will then angle to be appointed vice president under the terms of the 25th amendment. he succeeds, then begins systematically undermining the president, causing the latter's effectiveness and popularity to plummet to the point where he resigns, allowing underwood to assume the presidency at the end of the series' second season. in season 4, underwood is shot and temporarily incapacitated, leading to his vice president, donald blythe, to become acting president until underwood finished healing. in season 5, the presidential election goes to the house of representatives, but frank's wife claire underwood is elected vice president by the senate before the house of representatives can elect the president. thus, claire becomes acting president in the interim until the presidential election is resolved.
