Devant Maharaj, who dropped out of the election before nomination day and supported Bharath, called on Persad-Bissessar to embrace all and rebuild the party. The election had the lowest voter turnout for an UNC internal election with only 17,066 members out of 120,000+ members coming out to vote. This follows after the last internal election in 2017 was recorded to have the lowest voter turnout.

Founder of the party, Basdeo Panday, commented before the election that the UNC had no future under the leadership of Kamla Persad-Bissessar nor Vassant Bharath and would eventually die out. He reiterated again after the election results that the UNC would die, pointing that it had the lowest voter turn out for an UNC internal election and says that the COVID-19 pandemic had nothing to do with it as the last internal election was the same.

He further said that Kamla Persad-Bissessar killed the party "beyond repair" and that the only way to end the "tribal politics" was for a new party to be formed. However, political analyst Mukesh Basdeo disagreed with Panday, saying that the party still got a significant number of votes despite the COVID-19 pandemic and that had the election been held in other conditions then it would have showed a decline in the interest of the party. He also stated that the pandemic deterred people from coming out to vote. He noted that smaller third parties were crushed in the 2020 general election and that most of the votes went to the two major parties, the UNC and the PNM.

2020 United Nations Security Council election
The 2020 United Nations Security Council election was held on 17 and 18 June 2020 during the 74th session of the United Nations General Assembly, held at United Nations Headquarters in New York City. The elections were for five non-permanent seats on the UN Security Council for two-year mandates commencing on 1 January 2021.


2020 United Nations Security Council election
In accordance with the Security Council's rotation rules, whereby the ten non-permanent UNSC seats rotate among the various regional blocs into which UN member states traditionally divide themselves for voting and representation purposes, the five available seats were allocated as follows:


2020 United Nations Security Council election
In order of votes received, the countries elected were Mexico, India, Norway, and Ireland, with Kenya elected after a second round of voting the following day against Djibouti in a run off vote. These five members will serve on the Security Council for the 2021–22 period.


2020 United Nations Security Council election
The elections were held under special conditions due to the COVID-19 pandemic, with ambassadors only allowed to enter the General Assembly Hall one-by-one to cast their ballots instead of the simultaneous voting that usually takes place.


2020 United Nations Security Council election, Campaign, African Group
The African Group seat was contested between Kenya and Djibouti. The seat traditionally rotates between different African subregions, with a single candidate agreed upon from the appropriate subregion for that cycle, and therefore is rarely contested. East Africa was due to be represented in this election, and though the Permanent Representatives' Committee of the African Union endorsed Kenya for the seat by a margin of 37–13, Djibouti challenged this result, emphasizing that Kenya had already served twice on the Security Council and alleging that it was unfairly dismissed because both African countries already on the Security Council were also Francophone.


2020 United Nations Security Council election, Campaign, African Group
During the campaign, both countries emphasized their contributions to UN peacekeeping missions. Kenya's platform was centered around a 10-point pledge unveiled by Cabinet Secretary for Foreign Affairs Monica Juma at a campaign launch in Addis Ababa in 2019. The ten points were building bridges, peacekeeping and support operations, regional peace and security, counterterrorism, women peace and security, youth empowerment, humanitarian action, justice, human rights and democracy, and environment and climate change.


2020 United Nations Security Council election, Campaign, African Group
Juma promised that Kenya would use its seat to promote cooperation between the UN Security Council and the Peace and Security Council of the African Union, noting that the powerful states in the UN had refrained from providing support to African Union Mission to Somalia and that this may set a precedent without further action. Kenya accused Djibouti of bringing "dishonor and disrepute to the African Union" by refusing to exit the race, while Djibouti described the process of the AU nomination as "illegal." Additionally, Kenya highlighted its support for the government and refugees of Somalia and South Sudan as examples of its international responsibility.


2020 United Nations Security Council election, Campaign, African Group
Kenya was considered the favorite due to having the support from the African Union, but Djibouti received backing from the Organization for Islamic Cooperation, Arab League, and Organisation internationale de la Francophonie and campaigned aggressively to the end. Djibouti criticized Kenya for its border dispute with Somalia, suggesting that it was therefore unfit to resolve disputes and handle matters of international security. It also played up its strategic location and being the site of military bases for Eastern and Western great powers alike. While both candidates claimed to have Chinese support, Africa experts including Roba Sharamo of the Institute for Security Studies and political scientist Martin Oloo alleged that China was responsible for encouraging the challenge from Djibouti, while Kenya was the preferred candidate of the Western countries.


2020 United Nations Security Council election, Campaign, Western European and Others Group
The Western European and Others Group race between Ireland, Norway, and Canada was projected to be a closely contested one. In 2018, Ireland invited UN diplomats to a concert by Irish rock band U2 while Canada did the same for a Celine Dion concert. In 2019, Canada attempted to garner support for its campaign by serving poutine to UN diplomats, while Norway responded by distributing waffles, a popular Nordic food, and Ireland hosted a Saint Patrick's Day party at the UN.


2020 United Nations Security Council election, Campaign, Western European and Others Group
Diplomats viewed Norway as being favored for a seat on the Security Council, given its longstanding commitment to diplomatic engagement and multilateralism. Norway was the largest contributor per capita to the UN budget of the three candidates, and the most generous donor of foreign assistance in the world, donating more than 1% of its GDP for international development. Norway's history of diplomatic engagement in mediating conflicts in Latin America and the Middle East also strengthened its candidacy.


2020 United Nations Security Council election, Campaign, Western European and Others Group
Ireland emphasized its unique perspective as a small island nation and its strong, long-lasting commitment to international security and multilateralism. Ireland had 628 officers deployed in UN peacekeeping missions, making it among the largest per capita contributors of peacekeeping forces, and it possessed a reliable record of support for peacekeeping operations since 1958. It was also speculated that it would have benefited from having the support of the member states of the European Union by dint of being the only member in the race. Ireland was seen as having the sympathies of some diplomats for having spent the least amount of time of the three candidates as a member of the Security Council in the past.


2020 United Nations Security Council election, Campaign, Western European and Others Group
Canada had lost its previous attempt to secure a seat in 2010, leading to contentious domestic political debate over the failed campaign. Canada intensified its efforts for 2020, hiring 13 full-time staff and spending $1.74 million on the campaign, exceeded only by Norway's $2.8 million in campaign expenses. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Foreign Minister François-Philippe Champagne both played active roles in the campaign. However, obstacles to Canada's bid included it having spent the longest time as an elected member of the Security Council of the three candidates and its consistent voting record in support of Israel.

COVID-19 presented new difficulties to the traditional electoral process. Campaigning plans among the candidates in the months preceding the election were cancelled and replaced with "lobbying via phone and Zoom," and ambassadors submitted their ballots in the UN General Assembly Hall at staggered, prearranged time slots while wearing masks.

In the second round of voting for the African Group, Kenya exceeded a two-thirds majority by just a single vote, earning a seat at the Security Council and joining Tunisia and Niger as the third African member in 2021. President Kenyatta called the victory a "demonstration of the country’s growing profile and influence in the community of nations as a steadfast and dependable development partner" and thanked Djibouti for being a "worthwhile opponent." He also reaffirmed Kenya's commitment to its 10-point agenda outlined during the campaign and promised to "endeavor to consolidate and voice Africa's position in the Security Council." Djiboutian Foreign Minister Mahamoud Ali Youssouf congratulated Kenya on Twitter and wished it success during its term.

2020 United States Air Force E-11A crash, Investigation and findings
American military authorities opened an investigation into the incident. The aircraft's flight data recorder was recovered.


2020 United States Air Force E-11A crash, Investigation and findings
The investigation concluded that the crash was caused by a broken turbine blade on the left engine compounded by pilot error. The crew misidentified which engine had failed. As a result, the pilots mistakenly shut off power to the right engine, believing the left engine was still intact. The failure to restart the correct engine in the air, and their attempt to return to Kandahar Air Base, substantially contributed to the mishap. With no working engines, the aircraft lacked the necessary altitude and airspeed to glide to the nearest base, forcing them to make an emergency landing on the snowy terrain, which proved too rugged to land safely.

2020 United States House of Representatives elections
In the 2018 United States House of Representatives elections, the Democrats had won 235 seats. Leading up to the 2020 elections, the Democrats were projected by many polls to expand their majority by up to 15 seats due to nationwide attitudes over the COVID-19 pandemic and due to the unpopularity of then-President Donald Trump. While Democrats ultimately retained control of the House following the 2020 elections, they lost a total of 13 seats and entered 2021 with a narrow 222–213 House majority, the narrowest since 2000. It was the first time since 2004 where the Republicans made net gains in the House during a presidential year.

No Republican incumbent was defeated for reelection, while several successful Democratic candidates won by smaller-than-expected margins. Many have cited Trump's presence on the ballot as having fueled high Republican turnout, while others have emphasized the Republican Party's efforts to promote their female and minority candidates.
