2052 United States presidential election in Washington (state)



The 2052 United States presidential election in Washington was held on Tuesday, November 5, 2052, as part of the 2052 United States presidential election. The Republican ticket of incumbent Governor of Oregon Abdul O'Shea and U.S. Representative from New Jersey's 2nd congressional district Dolores Andres won the state with 50.14% of the vote and a very narrow 0.27% margin of victory in the final round of ranked choice voting. This was the first time the state of Washington had voted for a Republican presidential candidate since 1984.

O'Shea, at the time the governor of neighboring Oregon, performed incredibly strongly for a Republican in Washington at the time. The state, as well as Oregon and California, had been devastated by increasingly severe wildfire seasons, and O'Shea used this as a talking point in his campaign, which enabled him to win Oregon and Washington despite his conservative positions on most major issues.
