The 2024 United States presidential election in Florida is scheduled to take place on Tuesday, November 5, 2024, as part of the 2024 United States elections in which all 50 states plus the District of Columbia will participate. Florida voters will choose electors to represent them in the Electoral College via a popular vote. The state of Florida has 30 electoral votes in the Electoral College, following reapportionment due to the 2020 United States census in which the state gained a seat.

Despite being a heavily-populated and fast-growing state once considered a presidential battleground and bellwether, Florida has been trending towards the political right in recent years. In 2020, Republican Donald Trump (who changed his resident state from New York to Florida in 2019) carried the state again by 3.36 percentage points, an improvement from his 1.2% margin in 2016, despite Trump losing re-election nationwide and polls pointing to a narrow Democratic win in Florida. In addition, Republicans won all statewide offices by double-digit margins in the 2022 midterms. Thus, Florida is expected to be a red state in 2024.

Incumbent Democratic president Joe Biden is running for re-election to a second term.
