The Democratic Party candidate, President Franklin D. Roosevelt, won the state of Utah with 60.44 percent of the popular vote. The Republican Party candidate, Thomas E. Dewey, garnered 39.42 percent of the popular vote. As of the 2024 presidential election [update] , this is the last election in which the following counties voted for a Democratic presidential candidate: Washington, Millard, Box Elder, Cache, and Rich. [1] This is also the last time that a Democrat won 60% or more of the state's vote or carried the state by double-digits.
This was the final election in which Utah voters chose presidential electors directly. The state switched to the modern short ballot in the following election.
