The 2024 United States presidential election in Hawaii took place on Tuesday, November 5, 2024, as part of the 2024 United States presidential election in which all 50 states plus the District of Columbia will participate. Hawaii voters will choose electors to represent them in the Electoral College via a popular vote. The state of Hawaii has 4 electoral votes in the Electoral College, following reapportionment due to the 2020 United States census in which the state neither gained nor lost a seat. ^[1]

Hawaii is a Pacific island state with its own unique culture separated from the mainland and is majority-Asian American. Although Hawaii has been somewhat drifting away from the Democratic Party since 2008, Hawaii has only voted Republican in two presidential elections since gaining statehood, in 1972 and 1984.

Although Harris won the state comfortably, the Republican candidate, Donald Trump, received more than 35% of the vote for the first time since 2004. It was also the first time since that election in which the Democratic candidate failed to achieve 60% of the vote in all of Hawaii's counties. Trump's gain in Hawaii was partially helped by Filipino Americans in the state, which mostly broke for him by 53%.^{[ citation needed ]}
