Dr. Pepper Ties Pepsi as America’s No. 2 Soda in 2024

Coke has reigned for decades as the best-selling soft drink in the United States.

At 130 years old, Coke also is the most consumed soda in the world, with an estimated 1.9 billion servings across 200 countries. As a result, Coca-Cola is one of the world’s most valuable brands.

While Coke has maintained 17-20% market share since 1995, Pepsi has seen a drop from 15.0% in 1995 to 8.3% in 2023.

Pepsi was surpassed by Diet Coke at the end of the 2000s but regained the second position during the 2010s. In 2024, however, Pepsi saw Dr. Pepper tie it as America’s No. 2 soda.

Over 60 countries were expected to go to polls at the start of this year, amounting to nearly half of the world’s population.

This graphic lists the key elections that have taken place in 2024, its winners, and the three big upcoming elections slated for the second half of this year.

Elections 2024: Who Won What So Far?

In the six big elections to start 2024, four incumbents held on to power. This list includes: Sheikh Hasina (Bangladesh), Shehbaz Sharif (Pakistan), Narendra Modi (India) and Vladimir Putin (Russia).

However, the Russian and Bangladeshi elections had little to no opposition candidates, casting a shadow on the electoral process.

*Independents backed by the opposition won the most parliamentary seats but did not form the government.

Meanwhile in Pakistan, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, leader of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz was re-elected to office.

However, the country’s election comission ruled that the opposition PTI party had not held valid internal elections, forcing its candidates to stand as independents. While they informally won the most number of seats in parliament (92), they still fell short of forming a majority.

Across the world, former governor of Mexico City, Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo was elected president and will be Mexico’s first woman president.

India’s Narendra Modi was re-elected for a third term but was forced to rely on a coalition to form the government.

In Indonesia, Prabowo Subianto, businessman and former defense minister was elected president. Subianto has been accused of human rights abuses during his military career and was once banned from entering the United States.

Major Upcoming Elections in 2024

On June 9th, French President Emmanuel Macron called a snap legislative election after dismal results for his Ensemble coalition in the European Parliament elections. The right-wing populist party, National Rally, led by 28-year old Prime Ministerial candidate Jordan Bardella, currently leads in the polls for the election slated for the first week of July.
