The 2024 United States presidential election in Indiana is scheduled to take place on Tuesday, November 5, 2024, as part of the 2024 United States elections in which all 50 states plus the District of Columbia will participate. Indiana voters will choose electors to represent them in the Electoral College via a popular vote. The state of Indiana has 11 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]

Indiana has a reputation for being the most conservative state in the Great Lakes region, with the southern region of the state having cultural influence from the Upper South and Bible Belt. No Democrat has carried the state at the presidential level since Lyndon B. Johnson's landslide victory in 1964, with the exception of Barack Obama of neighboring Illinois, who narrowly won the state in 2008. In addition, Indiana was decided by single digits in the elections of 1976, 1992, and 1996, all three of which consisted of the state being won by a Republican as a former Southern governor won under the Democratic banner.

Republican Donald Trump won Indiana comfortably in the past two presidential election cycles, with popular former Governor of Indiana Mike Pence on the ticket, by 19% in 2016 and by 16% in 2020. As a strongly red state, Trump — now running with JD Vance of neighboring Ohio — is expected to win the state a third time in 2024.[2]
