The 2024 United States presidential election in Hawaii took place 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. Hawaii voters chose electors to represent them in the Electoral College via a popular vote. The state of Hawaii has four electoral votes in the Electoral College, following reapportionment due to the 2020 United States census in which the state neither gained nor lost a seat.
Hawaii is a Pacific island state with its culture distinct from that of the U.S. mainland and its population has an Asian American plurality, unique among the 50 states. Hawaii has only voted Republican in two presidential elections since gaining statehood, in 1972 and 1984; nevertheless, its support for the Democratic Party has gradually declined after reaching a peak in 2008.
Although Harris won the state comfortably, Donald Trump received the highest vote percentage for a Republican since 2004, narrowing the margin by over 6% compared to 2020.
Hawaii is just 23% White, and has the highest percentage of Asian Americans of any state, highlighting the swing of Asian voters towards Republicans in this election, though Harris still won Asian voters overall. This was also the first time since 2004 that the Democratic candidate failed to receive 60% of the vote in all of Hawaii's counties.
