The2024 United States presidential straw poll in Guam took place on November 5, 2024.Guam is aterritory and not astate , making it ineligible to elect members of theElectoral College . However, Guam does conduct a non-bindingpresidential straw poll during the general election.[ 1]
In the2024 presidential election , incumbentDemocratic presidentJoe Biden initiallyran for re-election and became the party's presumptive nominee.[ 2] However, he withdrew from the race on July 21 and endorsedVice President Kamala Harris , who launchedher presidential campaign the same day.[ 3] TheRepublican nominee is former presidentDonald Trump .[ 4]
This is the first time since2000 that the straw poll voted for the candidate which lost the national popular vote, and the first time ever that the winner of the straw poll won by a plurality instead of a majority. Although Harris won the straw poll, she only won by a plurality, due to Trump's gains withAsian andPacific Islander voters. Guam is 33%Chamorro and 36% Asian, and just 7% White.
Guam has held a straw poll coinciding with every presidential election since1980 to gauge residents' preferences and raise awareness regarding the territory's lack of federal representation.[ 5]
In the2020 presidential straw poll , Biden defeated then-incumbent PresidentDonald Trump with 55.38% of the popular vote.[ 6]
