The 2024 United States presidential election in Mississippi took place on Tuesday, November 5, 2024, as part of the 2024 United States elections in which all 50 states plus the District of Columbia participated. Mississippi voters chose electors to represent them in the Electoral College via a popular vote. Mississippi's six votes in the Electoral College were unaffected by reapportionment after the 2020 United States census.
Donald Trump ran on the Republican ballot for a third consecutive time, winning the state by a margin of 22.9%, up 6.4 points from his margin four years earlier. Trump was the first person to receive 60% of the vote in a presidential election in Mississippi since Ronald Reagan in 1984. Before the election, most news organizations considered Mississippi a safe win for Trump.
This was the first time since 2004 that the Democratic presidential nominee won less than 40% of the vote in Mississippi, a state that is 38% Black. All but one county (Sharkey County) shifted towards Republicans, and Trump flipped some majority-Black counties.
