The 2024 Ohio Democratic presidential primary took place on March 19, 2024, as part of the Democratic Party primaries for the 2024 presidential election. 143 delegates to the Democratic National Convention will be allocated to presidential candidates.[1] The contest was held alongside Arizona, Illinois, and Kansas.
President Biden won every county; but, despite having already dropped out, Dean Phillips won three delegates. Congressman Phillips was still on the ballot on election day and gained his delegates by meeting the 15% threshold of votes needed to receive a delegate in a congressional district in the state's 2nd, 6th, and 14th districts.[2]
The filing deadline for the Ohio primary was on December 20, 2023, and the office of the Secretary of State of Ohio published the list of certified candidates on January 9, 2024.[3]
