==Executive branch == {{office-table}} | rowspan="2" | [[President of El Salvador|President]] | [[Nayib Bukele]] | [[Nuevas Ideas]] | 1 June 2019 |} [[El Salvador]] elects its [[head of state]], the [[President of El Salvador]], directly through a fixed-date [[general election]] whose winner is decided by absolute majority. If an [[Majority|absolute majority]] is not achieved by any candidate in the first round of a presidential election, then a run-off pool election is conducted 30 days later between the two candidates who obtained the most votes in the first round. The president serves a five-year term. He is barred from immediately succeeding himself, though previously elected presidents may run for a second, non-consecutive term. In September 2021, El Salvador's Supreme Court decided to allow President [[Nayib Bukele]] to run for a second term in the [[2024 Salvadoran general election|2024 election]], despite the Constitution prohibiting the president from serving two consecutive terms in office. The decision was made by judges appointed to the court by President Bukele.<ref>{{cite news |title=El Salvador's Bukele gets greenlight to run for re-election |url=https://www.france24.com/en/live-news/20210904-el-salvador-s-bukele-gets-greenlight-to-run-for-re-election |work=France 24 |date=4 September 2021 |language=en}}</ref> On 1 June 2024, President Nayib Bukele was sworn in for the second five-year term.<ref>{{cite news |title=El Salvador's 'all-powerful' gang-busting President Bukele sworn in for second term |url=https://www.france24.com/en/americas/20240601-el-salvador-s-all-powerful-gang-busting-president-bukele-sworn-in-for-second-term |work=France 24 |date=1 June 2024 |language=en}}</ref>
