The 2024 United States presidential election in Montana 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. Montana voters chose electors to represent them in the Electoral College via a popular vote. The state of Montana has four electoral votes in the Electoral College, following reapportionment due to the 2020 United States census in which the state gained a seat.

Trump once again won Montana, this time by 19.93%, an increase from his 16.37% margin of victory in 2020, but slightly under his 20.42% margin from 2016. Prior to the election, all major news organizations considered Montana a safe red state. Trump notably flipped Big Horn County (home of the Little Bighorn River and the famous battle that took place nearby it) which hadn't voted for the Republican candidate since Ronald Reagan won the county in 1980. He also flipped Blaine County, a county that has voted for the winning candidate in every U.S. presidential election since 1992.
