Things to remember:
God will not be surprised on who is elected. In fact, He puts them in their place. He is in control –
Romans 13:1 – “For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God.”
Daniel 2:21 – “And he changes times and seasons; he removes kings, and sets up kings.”
Not only that, but once the person is in power, He is in control then too.
Proverbs 21:1 – “The king’s heart is a stream of water in the hand of the Lord; he turns it wherever he will.”
God puts people in place. God directs them once in place. God removes them when needed. God puts new people in place. God directs them once in place…and so on and so on and so on.
Basically – God is in control. It is in Him we should place our trust.

Is there a place for prayer where elections for government leaders is concerned?
In 1 Timothy 2:1-2 it says, “I urge, then, first of all, that requests, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for everyone- for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness.” So we are commanded to pray for our leaders, regardless of whether or not they fit in our political ideology. I hope thats what you were asking.
