In the 2024 election, Vermont saw an increase in support for former President Donald Trump compared to the previous two elections he ran in. While Vice President Kamala Harris secured the state’s three electoral votes, Trump’s appeal grew over the years he was on the ballot in Vermont.
Unofficial election results from the Vermont Secretary of State’s Office revealed that 6,645 more ballots were cast for Trump this year compared to the 2020 election. Interestingly, Harris received 7,131 fewer votes than President Joe Biden did in 2020. Trump’s support was concentrated in parts of the state along the northern border and in Rutland County. He won nearly all the towns in Essex County, the state’s least populous region, while there was a tie between Trump and Harris in Lemington.
The increase in support for Trump in Vermont has raised eyebrows and sparked discussions among political analysts. The fact that he garnered more votes in 2024 despite already serving as president for four years suggests a shift in the state’s political landscape. This trend could have implications for future elections and the overall political climate in Vermont.
