Before the election, most news organizations considered Virginia a likely win for Harris. On election day, Harris won Virginia with 51.82% of the vote, carrying the state by a margin of 5.76%, similar to the 2016 results.
This was the first presidential election in which both major party candidates received more than 2 million votes in Virginia. Trump is the first Republican to win the popular vote without Virginia since 1924. This is also the first election since 2000 where Virginia voted for the popular vote loser.
