2024 United States presidential election in Minnesota



The 2024 United States presidential election in Minnesota was held on Tuesday, November 5, 2024, as part of the 2024 United States presidential election. The Democratic ticket of Kamala Harris and Tammy Baldwin won the state with 50.95% of the vote and a 4.60% margin of victory. Minnesota was the closest state to the nation in 2024; they only voted 0.1% more Democratic than the national average. Despite the narrowing margin from 2020 due to Haley's greater support in the suburban Twin Cities, the Democrats flipped three counties from 2020 and the Republicans did not flip any.

Analysis
The Democratic margin of victory in Minnesota decreased from 7.12% to 4.60% between the 2020 and 2024 presidential elections, which was largely chalked up to Nikki Haley's higher popularity with suburban voters (for example, Washington County, which contained many of the eastern Twin Cities suburbs, gave Harris 49.3% of the vote, 4.2% lower than Biden's 53.5% in 2020.) However, this was countered by Democratic improvements in greater Minnesota; they won Beltrami, Mahnomen and Rice counties for the first time since 2012, and reduced Republican margins all across rural Minnesota.

From Republican to Democratic

 * Beltrami (Largest city: Bemidji)
