Hey guys, I hope that everybody is doing really well. 

I have my Naturalization interview and civic test on Nov 4. Let’s assume we get the election results by midnight on Nov 3 and if we have a new winner. Would President Donald Trump still be considered the president from Nov 4 until the inauguration? 
Also how about senators and representatives?

A question you could be asked on civics test

the 20th Amendment covers President and terms

Whether it is Trump or Biden,  they will be swown in January 20th at Noon and duties for a new one start then

also this period between election and oath (when it means a change of Presidents) taking is called "lame duck"

the President is shown in at the US Capital building

Trump will be a lame duck whether he wins a second ten or not.  The only question is whether it will be a 3 month or 51 month lame duck period.

Of course he is still POTUS.  Each President's term of office ends in the month of January.  The last day of office for Senate and House of Representatives are different from the POTUS term.....but they are all still in power until early January, I think.

True, but lame ducks have the same power until a new POTUS takes the oath.

Yes, Congress convenes on January 3rd or 4th next year I believe.  There are exceptions due to special elections, but I don't think they apply to the OP (AZ Senator will take office immediately).

Sorry my comment was irrelevant. :)

If there are other elections in your area (governor, congress, senate) then you can probably impress your examiner by knowing the current, and the newly elected people, and your awareness of when they will be sworn in. Not that you get extra points for this sort of thing, but it can't hurt.

No one vacates their position on November 4. Everything stays the same.

Congrats on getting your interview scheduled.

Exactly. On November 4th everyone will still be at their posts, but showing that you are aware of what is going on would be an even better thing. As Limey says, you won't get extra credit, but at least this will show that you didn't just study for the test.

(AZ Senator will take office immediately).

"If Kelly were to defeat McSally, two election-law attorneys told The Arizona Republic that state law and Senate practices would make him eligible to take over the seat as soon as Nov. 30, when the state election results are expected to be canvassed this cycle, barring a prolonged legal fight over the results." https://www.azcentral.com/story/news/politics/elections/2020/09/18/arizona-sen-martha-mcsally-says-senate-should-vote-supreme-court-nominee/5832467002/

Correct - as soon as the election is certified, baring a challenge, Kelly would be Arizona's junior senator effective November 30th, presuming he also wins.  On the ground here it looks and feels pretty close.  Ironically "Former Partyboy / Astronaut Kelly's" ties to China have become an issue here ;)
