The 1984 United States presidential election in Rhode Island took place on November 6, 1984. All 50 states and the District of Columbia, were part of the 1984 United States presidential election. Voters chose four electors to the Electoral College, which selected the president and vice president of the United States.
Rhode Island was won by incumbent United States President Ronald Reagan of California, who was running against former Vice President Walter Mondale of Minnesota. Reagan ran for a second time with incumbent Vice President and former C.I.A. Director George H. W. Bush of Texas, and Mondale ran with Representative Geraldine Ferraro of New York, the first major female candidate for the vice presidency. Rhode Island is 1 of 6 States that voted for Reagan in 1984 and have not voted Republican in any presidential race since; the other 5 are Washington, Hawaii, Massachusetts, New York, and Oregon. This was also the last time that the counties of Bristol, Newport and Washington voted for a Republican presidential candidate and the last time a Republican presidential candidate won Kent County or any county in the state until Donald Trump won it in 2016.
To date, this is the last time that the cities of Cranston, Newport, and Warwick, as well as the towns of Bristol, Cumberland, Jamestown, Narragansett, New Shoreham, South Kingstown, Warren, and Westerly voted Republican. The city of Woonsocket would not vote Republican again until 2024. This is the last time Republicans won any congressional district in the state.
