The 2024 United States presidential election in Texas was held 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. Texas voters chose electors to represent them in the Electoral College via a popular vote. The state of Texas had 40 electoral votes in the Electoral College, following reapportionment due to the 2020 United States census in which the state gained two seats.[1]

A heavily populated West South Central state, Texas is one of the fastest growing and most diverse states in the U.S. and is generally considered to be a red state, not having voted Democratic in a presidential election since 1976 and with Republicans holding all statewide offices since 1995. Texas's location in the American South and largely in the greater Bible Belt has given the Republican Party the upper hand in the state in recent decades.[2] Nonetheless, Texas was considered by some to be potentially in play, as the state had not backed a Republican for president by double digits since it favored Mitt Romney in 2012. This increased competitiveness was largely explained by the fast-growing Texas Triangle trending leftwards in some elections, namely in the closely-contested 2018 U.S. Senate race and the 2020 U.S. presidential election, which saw the Metroplex county of Tarrant and the Greater Austin counties of Williamson and Hays flip to the Democratic candidate for the first time in decades. However, in the 2020 state elections, predominantly Hispanic South Texas shifted significantly rightward, a trend that the rest of the state followed in the 2022 midterms.[3][4] In 2024, Trump went on to win Texas by a margin of over 1.5 million votes, the second-largest margin of victory for any presidential candidate in Texas history.[5] Trump won 242 out of the state's 254 counties, the most for a Republican since 1972.[citation needed]

Having carried Texas by single-digit margins in the past two presidential elections (by a 9% margin in 2016 and by 5.6% in 2020), Trump once again carried The Lone Star State, but now with a decisive victory margin of 13.7%. Trump significantly outperformed his polling averages in the state and became the first presidential candidate to win Texas by double digits since 2012, reversing the trend towards Democrats that Texas had exhibited in the two previous presidential elections. According to exit polls, 55% of Latinos in the state voted for Trump.[6] Data also showed that Trump made large inroads with Asian-American voters in Texas, who awarded him 58% of their votes.[7] This marked the first time a Republican candidate won a majority of both Asian and Latino voters in Texas. Such rightward trends by these groups were replicated nationwide.

Trump became the first presidential candidate to receive over 6 million votes in Texas, setting a record for the most votes received by a candidate in any election in the state, as well as the largest vote total ever received by a Republican presidential candidate in any state in American history.

Background

Incumbent Democratic President Joe Biden initially ran for re-election and became the party's presumptive nominee.[8] However, following what was widely viewed as a poor performance in the June 2024 presidential debate and amid increasing age and health concerns from within his party, he withdrew from the race on July 21 and endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris, who launched her presidential campaign the same day.[9] Biden's withdrawal from the race made him the first eligible president not to stand for re-election since Texan Lyndon B. Johnson in 1968.

Former Republican President Donald Trump ran for re-election to a second non-consecutive term after his defeat in the 2020 election.[10]

Primary elections

Analysis

Trump flipped 10 counties that voted for Biden in 2020, including multiple heavily Hispanic counties in the Rio Grande Valley and South Texas, including 97.7% Hispanic Starr County, becoming the first Republican to win it since Benjamin Harrison in 1892.[94] Trump also became the first Republican to win Maverick County since Herbert Hoover in 1928, the first Republican to win Webb County since William Howard Taft in 1912,[95] the first Republican to win Duval County since Theodore Roosevelt in 1904, the first Republican to win Hidalgo County and Willacy County since Richard Nixon in 1972, and the first Republican to win Cameron County and Culberson County since George W. Bush in 2004.[96] Trump also received the most raw votes for a political candidate ever in Texas, breaking his own record from 2020. Nevertheless, he became the first Republican to win the White House without carrying Hays County since Richard Nixon in 1968.

Trump won the three largest metro areas in Texas, which include Dallas-Fort Worth (which Trump carried by a margin of about 7 percentage points), Greater Houston (which Trump also carried by about 7 percentage points), and Greater San Antonio (which Trump carried by about 5 percentage points). Trump also carried every other metro area in the state except for Greater Austin and El Paso (though he greatly improved on his 2020 margins in both of these).[97]
