March 4 is the 63rd day of the year in the Gregorian Calendar (64th in leap years). There are 302 days remaining.

The United States Constitution originally provided that the President of the United States was to be inaugurated on this date, starting in 1793 and then repeating every four years until 1933. In 1933, the 20th Amendment changed the presidential inauguration date to January 20.
