The executive departments and agencies of the federal government are the primary units of the federal executive branch and are analogous to ministries in parliamentary systems. They are led by a ''"secretary"'', such as the Secretary of State (Minister of Foreign Affairs) or Secretary of the Treasury (Minister of Finance). These departments are the means by which the President enforces laws and implements policy. There are currently 12 executive departments. The heads of these departments also make up the Cabinet of the Commonwealth which is the primary, advisory body to the President on national and international affairs. They are also included in the line of succession to the President. | The executive departments and agencies of the federal government are the primary units of the federal executive branch and are analogous to ministries in parliamentary systems.

Once candidates for presidential elections announce their intentions to run for office, there is a period referred as the "primary elections" in which party nominees debate publicly and make various public appearances in an attempt to gain support from the general public. This period is generally no longer than 30-45 days and usually begins four months before the presidential election. During this time, each party will usually endorse a particular candidate that "best represents the party", though most candidates are in some way affiliated with or have served under one of the main parties. | Once candidates for presidential elections announce their intentions to run for office, there is a period referred as the "primary elections" in which party nominees debate publicly and make various public appearances in an attempt to gain support from the general public.

Presidential candidates are required to obtain a nationwide majority of non-blank votes in a single round of balloting, which implies that the President is somewhat supported by at least half of the voting population. If none of the candidates wins more than 50% of the vote in the Presidential election, a runoff election is held between the two candidates which received the most votes in the prior election. Whomever wins the majority of votes in this election, becomes the net President. | Presidential candidates are required to obtain a nationwide majority of non-blank votes in a single round of balloting, which implies that the President is somewhat supported by at least half of the voting population.
