What happened in Idaho, 2024
In 2024, Idaho awarded its 4 electoral votes to Trump of the Republican party. That placed Idaho with the eventual winner: Donald Trump went on to take the presidency, and Idaho was part of his column.
Idaho stayed in the Republican column for the 15th straight cycle, extending a run that began in 1968. The region divided — Nevada, Utah, Wyoming, and Montana joined Idaho for the Republican ticket, while Washington and Oregon did not. Over its 34 recorded presidential cycles, Idaho has backed the Republican party more than any other — 23 times in all. The vote fell within the Modern Polarization — Close elections in a divided country.
Nationally, Donald Trump finished with 312 of the 538 electoral votes to Kamala Harris's 226. Donald Trump led the national popular vote with 49.8% of the ballots cast.
