The 2112 United States presidential election was the 29th quadrennial presidential election. Liberty nominee Megatron defeated Union nominee Rocky Bauman in a landslide. The election marked the end of Union dominance in United States politics that began in 2076 as well as the end of 12 years of Union rule of the presidency.

Incumbent President Adam A Anthem did not seek re-election, keeping his 2108 campaign promise. Unionists instead nominated General Rocky Bauman, an undead war hero from the First Civil War, on the ninth ballot of their convention. The Liberty Party chose former Vice President Megatron as their nominee on their second ballot. The campaign mainly focused on rising inflation, growing protests over workers' rights, and the expansion of the Articles of Union, which had been forgotten since the outbreak of the First Civil War. Bauman's lack of political experience and knowledge of current issues proved decisive and gave way to a landslide Liberty victory.
