Question

How many presidents died in office

Answer 1

Hint: Since the establishment of the Office in 1789, there have been 45 presidents.
John F. Kennedy, who was inaugurated at the age of 43, was the youngest president elected by popular vote. Some presidents were dead due to illness or assassination.

Complete answer:
In total, 8 presidents of the United States died in office.
1) William Henry Harrison (1841) - The first was William Henry Harrison (1841) whose presidency, because his inaugural speech was the longest, was the shortest in history.
2) Zachary Taylor (1850) - Zachary Taylor (1850) died at the age of 65 on July 9, 1850, five days after succumbing to an unknown illness.
3) Abraham Lincoln (1865) - Abraham Lincoln was murdered for the first time in 1865. On the night of April 14, 1865, while attending the theatre with his daughters, Lincoln was shot by John Wilkes Booth and died the next morning. Booth was apprehended and fatally shot 12 days later.
4) James Garfield (1881) - The second president to be assassinated was James Garfield (1881). On July 2, 1881, Charles J Guiteau shot Garfield. Garfield survived the initial shooting but died two months later at the age of 49, just six months after taking office, from his injuries.
5) William McKinley (1901) - On 6 September 1900, William McKinley (1901), The anarchist Leon Czolgosz shot him. The initial shooting survived, but died eight days later in an assassination attempt.
6) Warren G Harding (1923)- Warren G Harding (1923), died in office on 2 August 1923. Harding was a deadly heart attack.
7) Franklin D Roosevelt (1945)- On 12 April 1945, less than a month before the end of World War 2, he collapsed and died in Europe following a brain haemorrhage. His reign was the longest in U.S. presidential history for a total of 12 years, a month and eight days.
8) John F Kennedy (1963) - John F Kennedy (1963) was the most recent US president to pass away while in office. On November 22, 1963, while campaigning in an open-top limo with his wife in Dallas, Texas, he was fatally shot. The Warren report named Lee Harvey Oswald as the sole suspect (who was fatally shot on live television two days later by nightclub owner Jack Ruby), but polls today indicate that many Americans believe there was a larger plot involving various high-ranking CIA officials to assassinate Kennedy.

Note: Interesting enough, before Reagan and Bush ended the trend, the president elected every 20 years died in office. Despite the fact that Reagan was almost assassinated. In addition, four presidents were assassinated, three of whom chose a vice president with whom they disagreed for political reasons. After just one month in office, William Henry Harrison died, having been sick the whole time. After more than a decade in office, FDR died.
