Was Trump close to winning New York? County-by-county breakdown
NEW YORK - Donald Trump was heavily favored to lose the Democratic stronghold of New York and its 28 electoral votes in the 2024 election, but the former president did close the gap following his 2020 performance.
JUMP TO: HOW DID YOUR COUNTY VOTE?
As of Wednesday morning, Trump received 44.6 percent of the state's votes. Back in 2020, he received 37.8% and in 2016 – 36.5%, according to 270.com. Biden defeated Trump by 23% in New York in the past election; Harris won the state by only a 7-point margin.
Going back even further, a Republican presidential candidate hasn't received that high of a percentage in New York since 1988, when George H. W. Bush defeated Michael Dukakis. In that year, Bush received 47.5% of the NY vote. Furthermore, a Republican presidential candidate hasn't carried New York since 1984, when Ronald Reagan defeated Walter Mondale. In that year, Reagan received 53.8% of the NY vote.
Meanwhile, the Associated Press declared Trump the 47th President of the United States after earning 277 electoral votes early Wednesday morning. Here's how each county in New York voted in the 2024 election:
