The 2024 United States presidential election in Wyoming 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 participated. Wyoming voters chose electors to represent them in the Electoral College via a popular vote. The state of Wyoming has three electoral votes in the Electoral College, following reapportionment due to the 2020 United States census in which the state gained no further congressional seats.[2]
A sparsely populated Mountain West state, Wyoming is considered to be a deeply red state, and Donald Trump was expected to easily win the state. Wyoming has not voted for a Democratic presidential candidate since 1964. This is also the case in Alaska, Idaho, Utah, North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, and Oklahoma. Wyoming had furthermore been Trump's second-strongest state in 2016 and strongest state in 2020 (trading places with West Virginia), voting for Trump by more than a 40% margin in both elections.
On election day, Trump again fared better in Wyoming than in any other state, winning it by 45.76%. Trump's 71.60% vote share in the state was the highest a presidential nominee has ever received in Wyoming, surpassing Ronald Reagan's 70.51% of the vote in the 1984 presidential election; and was the first time that any nominee won over 70% of the vote in any state since 2012 (when Barack Obama did so in Hawaii and Mitt Romney in Utah).

Results
By county
By congressional district
Due to the state's low population, only one congressional district is allocated. This district is called the at-large district, because it covers the entire state, and thus is equivalent to the statewide election results.
