2024 presidential election marks closest New York has come to turning red in 30 years as Trump support surges in NYC
Briefly

The 2024 presidential election marked the closest New York has come to turning red in almost four decades - with Donald Trump becoming the first Republican in 20 years to keep the spread under 20 points.
The margin between Democrats and Republicans hasn't been as slim since Michael Dukakis beat George H. W. Bush by a narrow 4.1% in 1988 - before ultimately losing the election to the Republican contender.
With more than 97% of scanners reporting at the end of Tuesday night, Trump boasted 30.44% of New York City's vote, according to the city Board of Elections.
Most of Trump's growing support can be tracked down to the Bronx, where ballots cast in his name soared 35% between 2020 and 2024.
