The strongest support for Trump came in Wyoming, where he won 72.3 percent of the vote. The map below shows by what margin each candidate won or carried each state as of noon Thursday.

For most of the country, a key issue for voters was the economy. That was just as true for Wyoming and West Virginia — both of which gave Trump more than 70 percent of the vote — as in traditional Democratic strongholds in the Northeast.

Harris carried both New York and New Jersey, but by much slimmer margins than Biden in 2020. In New Jersey, the Democratic vote share fell by nearly 6 percentage points, from 57.3% in 2020 to 51 .5% in 2024. And in his former home state of New York, Trump won by 6.5 points, jumping from 37.7% in 2020 to 44.2% this week.

Even in Maryland, where more than 60 percent of voters favored Harris, the returns showed a serious drop from the 65.4 percent of the vote that Biden won in 2020.

New England, one of the safest Democratic areas in the nation, also showed increased enthusiasm for Trump. New Englanders, like voters across the country, were particularly concerned with the economy.

In Massachusetts-a deep blue, Harris lost ground with voterswinning just 61.3% of the vote, compared to Biden’s share of 65.6% in 2020. Communities such as Acushnet, Middleborough and Carver, where Trump won in 2020saw support for him rise sharply in 2024. Other cities, such as Saugus and Athol, went from Biden in 2020 to Trump in 2024.

In Rhode Island, Trump’s 42% of the vote was enough to secure it the best performance by a Republican since 1988. And in New Hampshire, Trump’s strong performance of 48.2 percent — by 3 percentage points of Harris — it only cemented its reputation as a purple state.
