The 2024 United States presidential election in Oklahoma 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. Oklahoma voters will choose electors to represent them in the Electoral College via a popular vote. The state of Oklahoma has seven 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]
A deeply red state entrenched in the Bible Belt, Oklahoma has not backed a Democratic presidential candidate since it was won by Lyndon B. Johnson of neighboring Texas in 1964 and since then has only been competitive at this level in the nationwide victories of former Southern governors Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton. In addition, Republican presidential candidates have consistently won every county in the state starting with Texan George W. Bush in 2004 — although Oklahoma County, home to the state capital Oklahoma City, was closely decided in 2020. Oklahoma is expected to be safely carried by the GOP in 2024.[2]
