In a decisive victory, Democrat Kamala Harris emerged triumphant in Delaware’s presidential primary held on Tuesday, defeating her Republican opponent, Donald Trump.
Harris’ success in the historically blue state was widely anticipated, as Democrats have maintained a strong grip on Delaware’s three electoral votes for many years.
The last time a Republican presidential candidate secured a win in Delaware was in 1988, when George H.W. Bush achieved this feat.
Additionally, that year also marked the last occasion Delaware voters elected a Republican governor.

For years, the congressional representation from Delaware has been entirely Democratic, and the party also dominates both houses of the state legislature.
The announcement of Harris as the winner was made by media outlets at 8:34 p.m. EST, confirming the long-standing Democratic preference in the state.
This outcome solidifies Delaware’s position as a safe haven for Democratic candidates in presidential elections, further reinforcing the party’s influence in local governance and legislative matters.
Harris’ victory will likely be a significant factor as the election season progresses, showcasing the strong support for her party amid discussions surrounding the broader political landscape.
