Elections in New York State |
---|
The 2024 United States presidential election in New York was held on Tuesday, November 5, 2024, as part of the 2024 United States presidential election in which all 50 states plus the District of Columbia participated. New York voters chose electors to represent them in the Electoral College via a popular vote. The state of New York had 28 electoral votes in the Electoral College, following reapportionment due to the 2020 United States census in which the state lost a seat.[1]
Though it remained comfortably Democratic, New York swung the hardest to the right out of every state in the nation from the 2020 election, with Trump greatly improving his performance by winning 44.13% of the state's vote, compared to 36.75% in the 2016 election and 37.74% in 2020. All counties in the state except for Yates swung to the right, with counties in Downstate New York having the strongest swings to the right.[citation needed]
Polling had indicated a potentially closer race in New York in 2024 than in 2016 or 2020, but Democrats still consistently led by margins well outside the margin of error.[2][3] Nonetheless, Trump's performance in New York was the strongest of any Republican presidential candidate since Vice President George H. W. Bush lost by just 4.1 points in the 1988 United States presidential election.[4] It is also the first presidential election since 1956 in which New York voted to the right of Washington state (which had the smallest swing to the right in this election), the first since 1960 when New York voted to the right of Connecticut, and the first since 1980 when New York voted to the right of Delaware.
The 2024 New York Democratic presidential primary was held on April 2, 2024, alongside primaries in Connecticut, Rhode Island, and Wisconsin.

Only two candidates appeared on the ballot in New York: Kamala Harris and Donald Trump. Harris will be under the Democratic and Working Families Party ticket while Trump will be running on the Republican and the New York Conservative Party ticket.[12] Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will not be appearing on the ballot in New York[13] after Judge Christina Ryba of the 3rd New York Judicial District[14] ruled that he had listed his place of residence as being in Katonah, New York, to be false and that he actually lived in Los Angeles.[15]
The state authorized votes for 12 write-in candidates:[16]
