Utah's electoral votes in U.S. presidential elections 1896-2020

Utah has taken part in all 32 elections since 1896, voting for the nationwide winner in 23 of these, which gives a success rate of 72 percent. Utah has sided with the Republican nominee in 24 of these elections, including the current streak of 14 consecutive victories for Republicans; it sided with the Democratic nominee in the other eight elections, half of which were victories for Franklin D. Roosevelt. In recent years, Utah has been a Republican stronghold, with Republican nominees often taking double (almost triple in 2012) the number of popular votes than their Democratic opponents. In the 2020 election, Donald Trump won the popular vote in the Beehive State, by a comfortable, twenty percent margin. In the previous election, however, Trump finished with the lowest share of the popular vote of any Republican nominee in recent decades, as roughly 22 percent of the popular vote was won by the independent candidate and Utah native, Evan McMullin.

As of 2020, no U.S. president has been born in Utah, nor has any major party nominee. Utah's allocation of electoral votes has grown gradually throughout history, and currently stands at six electoral votes.
