The 2024 United States Secretary of State elections are scheduled to be held on November 5, 2024, to elect the Secretaries of State in seven states. These elections took place concurrently with several other federal, state, and local elections.

The elections for Secretary of State had taken on heightened importance due to former President Donald Trump's claims that the 2020 election was stolen.[citation needed] Many had argued that election officials such as secretaries of state could have the power to overturn the 2024 election, should its outcome be disagreeable to the losing candidate.

The previous elections for this group of states took place in 2020. The secretary of state of Vermont serves two-year terms and was last elected in 2022.

Going into the election, there were 26 Republican secretaries of state and 21 Democratic secretaries of state. 4 Democratic secretaries of state were up for election, of whom LaVonne Griffin-Valade of Oregon is retiring. 3 Republican secretaries of state were up for election, of whom Jay Ashcroft of Missouri and Mac Warner of West Virginia are retiring.

Partisan composition

[edit]

Going into these elections, this class of secretaries of state is made up of 4 Democrats and 3 Republicans. Democrats are defending one state won by Donald Trump in 2020 (North Carolina), while Republicans do not hold any states won by Joe Biden.
