November 2024 election results remain unofficial until they are certified on Tuesday, November 26. However, with the Whatcom County Auditor’s Office estimating only 50 ballots are left to count, preliminary results paint a clear picture of how Whatcom County residents voted.
Precinct-level data shows Blaine, Birch Bay and Custer residents were nearly split between selecting Donald Trump or Kamala Harris as the country’s next president, with Trump receiving 49.7 percent of north county votes. Downtown Blaine and its surrounding area leaned toward Harris while rural areas like east Blaine and Custer voted more for Trump. In general, Birch Bay voted more evenly between Trump and Harris, though the preferred candidate varied by precinct. Whatcom County as a whole voted overwhelmingly for Harris.
About 83 percent of the county’s 167,634 registered voters participated in the most recent election, according to the auditor’s office.
Note: Percentages refer to the percent of the voters in each precinct received by the overall winner. Winners are shown in the left column. For example, Donald Trump won the county by 37.1 percent; in precinct 102, Trump received 45.4 percent of the votes. Third-party candidates were not included in the percentage totals.
