Kamala Harris is the projected winner of Delaware in the 2024 presidential election, according to the Associated Press. This victory will add three Electoral College votes to Harris's tally, marking the ninth consecutive Democratic win in the state since 1988.
Delaware, often called the First State, has consistently supported Democratic presidential candidates. In 2020, President Joe Biden, with Harris as his running mate, won his home state by securing 59 per cent of the vote to Donald Trump’s 40 per cent. Hillary Clinton also carried Delaware in 2016 with 53 per cent of the vote.
Recent polls have indicated Harris's strong lead over Trump. An average of two polls placed Harris at 55 per cent support compared to Trump’s 36.5 per cent.
The state remains a Democratic stronghold, with Democrats in control of both the governor’s office and the state Legislature.
