2024 Primary Season Finale: New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Delaware Make Their Votes Count!

The race for the Democratic and Republican nominations have moved at a record pace. Now, our focus turns to the Northeast where the final primaries of 2024 took place in New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Delaware. **New Hampshire:** Often referred to as the Granite State, New Hampshire is known for its pivotal role in presidential nominations. New Hampshire is the site of the first primary in the cycle, a tradition that started back in 1920. This year was no different. A small, otherwise quiet state had been in media frenzy for weeks leading up to the primary. Streets were jammed with political rallies and moving speeches from aspirants, their supporters, and detractors. New Hampshire has a reputation for being an ideological pivot, often siding with an underdog or endorsing an unexpected candidate. But this time, the state fell in line with the national mood, nodding towards the frontrunners in both the Democratic and Republican camps. **Rhode Island:** Next stop was Rhode Island, the smallest state with an outsized political impact. Despite its diminutive size, Rhode Island has been known to challenge the political norms. In this coastal state, its residents and delegates gathered to place their votes that will represent them in the national elections. With a relatively moderate electorate, Rhode Island’s primary usually leans towards candidates with moderate political rhetoric. This time around, it was evident in the state’s choice for the Democratic and Republican nominations, which geared towards candidates with a reputation for their across-the-aisle work ethic and balanced political views. **Delaware:** Lastly, the focus moved to Delaware – the state known as the First State, as it was the first to adopt the U.S Constitution. This year, Delaware’s primary proved to be a clincher, sealing the fate of a few trailing campaigns. Despite its small size, Delaware’s diverse demography makes it a microcosm of the U.S. electorate. Quite predictably, the state had its span of intense campaign trails, enthusiastic debates, and passionate displays of political alignments. The state’s election results have reflected a well-rounded perspective of the nation’s political scope. While New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Delaware may be geographically small, the role they play in shaping and deciding the national primaries is immense. In 2024, the results from these states not only brought an air of finality to the primary season but also shaped the political landscape for the General Election. The choices
